Parents in Tech host Looi Qin En joins MONEY FM 89.3 on how he thinks the tech industry can power change and progression to better support working parents and greater work-life balance especially in this Covid-19 era.
Research by the Ministry of Social and Family Development (MSF) also showed that while most fathers want to use their paternity leave to be more involved when their child arrives, the key reason they do not is the lack of workplace support.
Qin En shares how workplaces can better support parents by relooking at how opportunities are allocated and performance is rewarded, in addition to coaching leaders and managers, especially those who are not parents, to be sensitive and aware of the challenges that parents face.
