The Singapore Labour Journal (SGLJ) aims to promote labour research and policy issues in Singapore and its surrounding region. It is a peer-reviewed journal that provides a platform for academics, policymakers, and practitioners to publish and advance research in the field of labour. The journal is multi-disciplinary, encompassing labour-related topics like labour economics, employment and labour relations, work conditions, social policies, health, and safety. The journal gives due recognition to empirical work and evidence-based practices with labour and economic interpretations. Practitioner insights is a key feature of the journal, as these articles communicate pragmatic implications of labour issues rather than having an academic or methodological focus. The SGLJ is an open access journal which serves to communicate scientific and practitioner knowledge to a wider audience.

Together, the articles in this collection examine how skills, work design, representation, and technology are being rethought to address precarity, improve job quality, and support sustainable careers in Singapore’s evolving economy.
