How technology is addressing the manpower crunch in Singapore’s security sector

Quick Summary:

With Singapore’s security sector facing a long-term manpower crunch, which has been exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic, many security officers are feeling blunted with the increasing hours on the job and performing duties beyond the usual scope, such as facilities management.

As the security industry in Singapore takes on brave strides in leveraging technology to enhance the delivery of services, there will be lower dependence on manpower to perform manual work such as patrolling and CCTV monitoring.

In fact, critical core skills such as digital fluency, problem-solving, adaptability and community are key for security professionals, either if they are branching out through horizontal skills or keeping pace with the changes in technology.
