Employee Development and Engagement

We recognise the importance of engaging, motivating, training and supporting our people. We strive to develop our employees to reach

their maximum potential through training, job rotation and internal promotion opportunities. Training allocation is available annually for

our employees to participate in internal or external workshops and seminars. We believe that a mixture of both internal and external

training develops targeted skills and knowledge for a specific roles.

All new employees undergo an induction program which helps

them to familiarise with all aspects of the Company and the

Group, understand the responsibilities of their new role, the

culture of our business, the processes they need to follow as

well as our expectations for ethical conduct. They also will be

provided with the Employee Handbook before, or as soon as they

start their new job. This Handbook provides new employees with

information about their conditions of employment as well as the

standards of professional behaviour expected.

We also set annual Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) for our

employees that reflect critical success factors in their career

development. This formal performance and career development

reviews take place once a year at the end of the financial

year. It also serves as an effective communication platform

between employer and employee for feedback, sharing ideas,

identify avenues for improvement and to recognize individual

training and development needs. Based on performance and

contribution, the employees are rewarded through increments,

bonuses or promotions.
