Reports
Latest published context as of 2026-03-20: the latest official labour release is MOM Labour Market Report Q4 2025, and the current site monitor now uses Q4 2025 full. The latest macro snapshot is 2025 4Q unemployment, and the latest official national AI-adoption survey is IMDA's 2024 data. Taken together, they show a labour market that remains fairly tight (2.9% resident unemployment) while AI usage is already mainstream (74% of workers reported using AI at work).
The live labour monitor now uses the full MOM Labour Market Report Q4 2025, including explicit Q3-to-Q4 deltas for vacancy, hiring, retrenchment and re-entry signals.

What changed
- 90 occupations changed risk band between occupations-v3-2026-03.json and occupations-v4-2026-03.json.
- Production & Transport Operators, Cleaners & Labourers saw the strongest vacancy pickup while Clerical, Sales & Service Workers saw the sharpest vacancy cooling in the live labour monitor.
- Top structural riser: Data entry clerk. Top structural faller: Employment agent/Labour contractor.
Why it matters
- Clerical, Sales & Service Workers now reads as deteriorating, which means structural pressure is landing on a weaker live labour backdrop for that family of work.
- Production & Transport Operators, Cleaners & Labourers still reads as strong, so not every high-exposure occupation faces the same near-term labour conditions.
What to watch
- Watch whether rising retrenchment counts persist into the next quarter rather than treating one quarter as a trend.
- Watch whether official demand lists change meaningfully in the next release cycle.
- Read snapshot movers together with the live monitor, not as standalone proof of labour-market deterioration.
