More than 3000 individuals contribute daily to the success of The Chinachem
Group; it’s their commitment and enthusiasm that is the face and the
voice of our business.
The pandemic has not been easy; it’s been a challenging few years for
every one of our colleagues, both in and out of the workplace.
Therefore, after the stresses and strains of trying to maintain business
continuity, and our multiple periods of enforced working from home,
Chinachem is more conscious than ever of the need to support our colleagues
and their families. That means we’re focusing on health and
wellbeing more than ever, we’re developing and strengthening talent
more than ever, and we’re giving back more than ever.
Stories of the many things we’re doing in this area follow; we’d
love you to take a little time to learn more.
Looking after our core assets
Our workplace, transformed
Our head office was
designed decades ago, long before the wellbeing of employees was
considered. So, with learnings from an extended period of working from
home, Chinachem recently embarked on a comprehensive remodeling
programme, to create an inspiring workplace that people would genuinely
want to come to every day.
And the transformation has been
striking. Significantly more user friendly and healthier, the
environment features lush greenery, natural materials, social hubs,
enhanced air quality, and much greater natural light, making it feel
more like a home than a workplace.
Fostering future leaders
-
Chinachem Management Associate ProgrammeTo have a long-term sustainable future as an organization, we need to nurture development and growth. And through dialogue with our colleagues, we’re able to train, incentivize, and support them in their personal career goals; because if they are successful, we are successful too.
With that in mind, the end of 2022 saw the launch of Chinachem’s Management Associate Programme, the first of an annual opportunity for young graduates to enter a structured career development training scheme within the Group. Because laying pathways to succession, is a vital element in growing the value we create for the community.
-
Coffee with the CEOWe frequently arrange “Coffee with CEO” sessions for employees to share their views and obtain feedbacks in an informal setting. This allows them to voice valuable suggestions and exchange ideas with the CEO, who conversely cherishes the opportunity to hear and understand employees’ constructive opinions directly.
Worker safety
-
“Life First” safety campaignEmployee health and safety has always been our first priority. In Sep 2020, we participated in the “Life First” construction safety campaign, organised by the Construction Industry Council, to investigate the potential risks of the construction sites and organise health and safety related talks. We examined the potential risks of Anderson Road and Ho Man Tin Phase II Development projects sites, and organised seminars for our workers to promote construction safety awareness.

Building Covid resilience
Nina Hotels adopted a new germicidal technology that encapsulates volatile biocides which are continuously controlled- released into the air. At NINA MALL 1 & 2, elevators are equipped with ‘kNOw Touch’ contactless panels that allow visitors to activate elevator buttons without risking virus transmission.
