HANG LUNG GROUP LIMITED
(Hong Kong, July 3, 2014) Hang Lung Properties Limited (HKSE stock code: 101) announces that it has been named a Distinguished Family-Friendly Employer for the second time under the 2013/14 Family-Friendly Employers Award Scheme organized territory-wide by the Family Council. The Family Council is an advisory body to the Hong Kong SAR Government providing a platform for examining family-related policies and promoting a culture of loving families in the local community.
Fully living up to its "We Do it Right" motto, Hang Lung Properties has a recognized commitment to fostering a family-friendly spirit and culture throughout the Company and putting in place family-friendly measures for its staff, raising awareness of the importance of family values in a working environment.
The award of the Distinguished Family-Friendly Employer title highlights Hang Lung Properties' all-round excellence in employing family-friendly employment policies and practices. These include providing employee and family care arrangements, benefits and support, as well as promoting work-life balance and family values within and outside the workplace.
Hang Lung Properties embraces its staff as an invaluable asset, investing heavily in staff development and engagement and seeking to create an environment that stands out as a desirable place in which to work. In addition to the offering of annual leave, maternity leave, paternity leave, marriage leave and volunteer leave, some of the highlights of Hang Lung's family-friendly practices include the annual outing which is free for staff, and the Family Knows Your Workplace program under which all staff from Hong Kong and Mainland offices are encouraged to invite their family members to visit their workplace so as to learn more about the Company and their work. It is by so doing that helps both the Company's business operations and the wider community.
The Family-Friendly Employers Award Scheme is a biennial event covering both business and non-business sectors. It was first launched in 2011.
