The HR Grand Winner 2015 Award
 
The win of these nine awards demonstrates the comprehensive extent of our passion to engage and develop our Talents into a competitive advantage. They include:
  • HR Grand Winner 2015 Award
  • Excellence in Employee Engagement (Gold Award)
  • Excellence in Recruitment & Retention Strategy (Gold Award)
  • Excellence in CSR Practices (Gold Award)
  • Excellence in Employee Work-Life Balance (Silver Award)
  • Excellence in Compensation & Benefits Strategy (Silver Award)
  • Excellence in Employer Branding (Silver Award)
  • Excellence in Employee Development (Silver Award)
  • Excellence in Training, Learning & Development Programmes (Silver Award)
 
  William Yeung, CEO and Co-Owner said, “These nine awards really speak to the profound commitment we made to Talent engagement policies over the past decade, particularly after our management buy-out in 2012. What makes HKBN different is that we push forward with our beliefs and continue to try new initiatives for the benefit of our Talents and company.”

Ivy Lau, Director – Talent Engagement & Corporate Social Investment and Co-Owner said, “We don’t always expect 100% success from all our initiatives, but we are determined to take bold steps towards supporting LIFE-work priority and Talent development. As an innovative company, we take risks that we can afford, and we grow and excel in return. We hope this win can inspire many other companies to follow suit.”

In the past year alone, we introduced a number of forward-thinking HR policies such as shortening daily working hours from 9-6 to 9-5, expanding 17-day annual public holiday entitlements to all Talents including frontline workers, and providing 7.5 days of additional time-off from newly added leave benefits that include 2-for-1 Bonus Leave, Anniversary Leave, Family Care Leave, Festive Eve Half-day Leave, and others. In addition, we provide our Talents with an abundance of holistic opportunities to grow via development programmes and educational sponsorships.

In its inaugural year, the HR Innovation Awards are already lauded as one of the most prestigious in Hong Kong and features a judging panel comprising of 13 senior client-side HR practitioners. The Awards and the competition was designed to uncover best practices in human resources across 20 categories.
