About us
The Institute for Human Resource Professionals (IHRP) is the HR professional body, set up by the tripartite partners: the Ministry of Manpower (MOM), the National Trades Union Congress (NTUC) and Singapore National Employers Federation (SNEF). IHRP is the only HR professional body in Singapore authorised to implement the national HR credentials, which is known as the IHRP Certification. IHRP has the goal of setting the HR standards of excellence and enabling human capital development in enterprises. Through the IHRP Certification, IHRP aims to enhance the competencies of HR professionals, as well as create developmental and professional pathways for them. This will professionalise and strengthen the HR profession practice in Singapore, allowing HR professionals to be key enablers in their organisations. Our 15-member board of directors come from diverse backgrounds. The Chairperson is Mrs Deborah Ong, Retired Partner, PwC Singapore. Why IHRP? Against the backdrop of rapid business disruption, it is essential that organisations develop their human capital, so they can be future-ready and thrive amid economic shifts. HR is the enabler that will help organisations rise to meet this challenge. But for it to be successful, HR must itself be future-ready. It must focus on maximising human capital and contribute to business growth. IHRP aims to equip HR professionals and their organisations with progressive and forward-looking people practices to meet this challenge.

Institute for Human Resource Professionals (IHRP) CEO Aslam Sardar, PBM was part of an engaging The Straits Times roundtable on flexible work arrangements (FWAs), together with Faith Li (General Manager, TAFEP Tripartite Alliance for Fair and Progressive Employment Practices), Yuit Ang (President, Association of Small & Medium Enterprises) and Juliana Ong (Director of Culture & Human Capital, Royal Plaza on Scotts), moderated by ST Assistant Business Editor, Joanna Seow. From a strategic HR perspective, FWAs represent a critical evolution in workforce management and transformation that goes far beyond mere accommodation - they are a powerful tool to drive organisational adaptability, job redesign, employee engagement, and talent attraction. The core imperative is to recognise that flexible work is not a one-size-fits-all solution, but a nuanced approach that requires thoughtful implementation. Flexible work models can be seen as a strategic business initiative that enables organisations to attract diverse talent, improve employee retention, enhance productivity, and demonstrate organisational agility. HR professionals must lead the charge in designing frameworks that balance organisational needs with employee expectations. This involves creating clear policies that outline different flexibility options aligned with the Tripartite Guidelines on FWA Requests (TG-FWAR) - such as flexi-place (remote work), flexi-time (staggered work hours), and flexi-load (part time/ job-sharing) - while maintaining performance standards. Critically, HR plays a pivotal role in streamlining processes to seek productivity gains and redesigning performance evaluation mechanisms to focus on outcomes. By transparently communicating how performance will be assessed and recognised under flexible arrangements, HR can mitigate employee anxieties about career progression and visibility. As workforce demographics and expectations continue to evolve, HR must view flexible work as a dynamic, ongoing dialogue between employer and employee, continuously refined to meet changing business and personal needs. 📰 Read more at https://lnkd.in/gBTa5pfq #IHRP #TAFEP #TGFWAR #FlexibleWorkArrangements
