EMPOWERINGOUR PEOPLE
Health and Safety
The Manager complies in all material
aspects with Singapore’s Workplace
Safety and Health (WSH) Act. The
WSH Act is an essential part of a
framework to cultivate good safety
habits in all individuals, so as to
create a strong safety culture at
workplaces. The WSH Act requires
stakeholders to take reasonably
practicable measures to ensure the
safety and health of persons at the
workplace. Apart from compliance
with the policies, all staff are
provided with a wide range of life
and medical insurance plans that help
to protect them. On an annual basis,
the fire extinguisher at the office of the
Manager is re-validated. Selected staff
of the Property Manager are trained in
first aid courses.
In FY 2016/17, two staff from the Property
Manager in Singapore were injured due
to smoke inhalation with regards to the
incipient fire incident at Wisma Atria in
FY 2016/17 (refer to page 64). As a result,
40 man-days were lost and a rate of
418 man-days lost per million man-
hours work (i.e. Accident Severity Rate)
was recorded. The affected employees
have since resumed work.
FAIR EMPLOYMENT –
FOSTERING FAIR AND EQUITABLE
WORKPLACE CONDITIONS
Professional success cannot be fully
enjoyed without work-life integration.
A diverse workforce spanning
different generations, genders and
nationalities generate significant value
to a harmonious workplace. In building
an inclusive workplace, we advocate
the importance of team integration,
a positive workplace culture and
work ethos.
