EMPLOYEE WELL-BEING –
CARING FOR OUR EMPLOYEES
THROUGH ACTIVE ENGAGEMENT
The Manager cares about its people
and the demands each individual
faces at different life stages. Family-
friendly initiatives such as staggered
work-hours and monthly “Bright
Sky Day” are implemented at the
workplace. On Bright Sky Day, staff can
start their weekend early by leaving
Lunar New Year celebrations at the
Singapore office
Photography walk at Gardens by the Bay
early on Friday to spend more time
with their families, or to pursue their
personal interests and for better
work-life harmony. The Manager also
participates in the annual “Eat With
Your Family Day” initiative by the
Centre for Fathering in Singapore
which encourages companies and
schools to end the day at 5pm to
spend time with their family.
We continually promote the merits
of healthy living and encourage
staff to take control of their physical
and mental health as part of a
holistic lifestyle. Comprehensive
health screening programmes were
organised for our staff as part of our
health & wellness initiatives.
To forge stronger team dynamics,
teambuilding activities and workshops
such as a terrarium workshop, a
photography walk at Gardens by
the Bay, as well as lunch talks on
“Mythbusters” and “Cognitive Efficacy”
were organised. Festive events such
as Chinese New Year and Mid-Autumn
Festival were celebrated together with
colleagues. Our continuous efforts
in implementing workplace health
activities ensure that our people
continue to live well-balanced work
lives resulting in a happier, healthier and
productive workforce.
We promote the merits of healthy
