SkillsFuture Workforce Development Grant (Job Redesign+)
The SkillsFuture Workforce Development Grant (Job Redesign+), also known as WDG(JR+), is a workforce development grant that launched from March 2026 as part of the Enterprise Workforce Transformation Package (EWTP). It provides enhanced support for job redesign, helping enterprises transform their workforce, redesign roles, adopt flexible work and AI-ready practices, and build internal capability. WDG(JR+) funds up to 70% for SMEs and 50% for non-SMEs of qualifying costs, capped at S$150,000 per enterprise, across three components: (1) Workforce Consultancy (up to $50,000) — expert guidance from pre-approved consultants to assess business needs, redesign jobs and develop an implementation plan; (2) Capability Building (up to $60,000) — building internal HR and line-manager expertise to drive ongoing job redesign; and (3) Workforce Tech Solutions (up to $90,000) — technology tools for data-driven workforce planning, which must be paired with at least one of the other components. WDG(JR+) succeeds the former Support for Job Redesign under the Productivity Solutions Grant (PSG-JR), which ended on 31 December 2025, making WDG(JR+) the replacement for PSG job redesign support. It operates on a nett-fee model: enterprises pay only their co-funding portion to the pre-approved consultant, and the government grant is paid to the consultant by the Anchor Programme Partner upon completion of approved project milestones.
