Tracking Number of Singaporean Workers Taking On Part-time Work alongside Full-time Employment

Mr Patrick Tay Teck Guan asked the Minister for Manpower (a) for each year from 2020 to 2024, how many Singaporean workers took up part-time jobs alongside full-time employment; and (b) if the Ministry does not track this data, whether it plans to do so.

Dr Tan See Leng: The number of full-time employed residents aged 15 and over who held multiple jobs, including a main full-time job, was 48,900 in 2020, 60,000 in 2021, 58,400 in 2022, 49,600 in 2023 and 56,000 in 2024.

In 2024, this constituted 2.7% of full-time employed residents.
