The document is a collection of news articles from Singapore discussing issues related to the country's upcoming Re-employment Act, which aims to promote the hiring and retention of older workers. The articles discuss how some employers may need to change their hiring practices and workplace policies to comply with the new law. Younger interviewers are said to be less likely to hire older applicants. The government is urging companies to prepare for the new regulations and make their workplaces more age-friendly before the law takes effect in 2012.
