What is the difference between a Statutory Board and a Ministry?
The Singapore Public Service offers a wide range of career opportunities and employs about 154,000 public officers who work in 16 Ministries and more than 50 Statutory Boards. Within the Public Service is the Civil Service, comprising about 86,000 officers working in the Ministries.
Statutory boards (such as HDB, CPF Board, IRAS, etc) have their own recruitment and human resource management practices. They are legally distinct employers from the Civil Service.
Whether your passion lies in education, supporting families, keeping Singapore safe, or addressing climate change, we have a role for you.
