The Job Re-Creation Programme (JRP) is an NTUC-led initiative which aims to raise the level of productivity as well as improve the image and work conditions of existing jobs to make them more attractive to Singaporeans.

It is part of the Re-employment Assistance Programme for Singaporeans (REAP), a programme launched jointly by Singapore Workforce Development Agency (WDA) and NTUC in January 2005 aimed at helping unemployed Singaporeans, especially those at risk of structural unemployment, to find and stay on in new jobs.

The Job Re-creation Programme-Real Estate Management and Maintenance Industry (JRP-REMMI) seeks to achieve the following target outcomes:

• Saving jobs
  
• Re-claiming jobs
  
• Enhancing employability
  
• Proactive creation of new jobs to meet foreseeable market needs

The JRP-REMMI process mode provides an overview of the approach to re-design and re-create jobs.
