            Corporate Governance Report (cont’d)

            For the year ended 31 March 2021


            Human resource policy


            Employment of physically challenged persons
            It is the policy of the Company that there should be no unfair discrimination in considering applications
            for employment, including those from physically challenged persons. All employees, whether or not
            physically challenged, are given equal opportunities to develop. As at 31 March 2021, there was no
            physically challenged person in the employment of the Company.


            Board and employees’ training
            Training and education of Directors on issues pertaining to their oversight functions are a continuous
            process, in order to update their knowledge and skills and keep them informed of new developments
            in the Company’s business and operating environment.


            The Company is also committed to keeping employees fully informed as much as possible, regarding
            the Company’s performance and progress and seeking their views, wherever practicable, on matters
            which particularly affect them as employees. Management, professionals and technical experts are
            the Company’s major assets, and investment in their future development continues.


            The Company’s expanding skill base has been extended by a range of training provided to its employees
            whose opportunities for career development within the Company have thus been enhanced. Training
            is carried out at various levels through both in-house and external courses.


            Incentive schemes designed to meet the circumstances of each individual are implemented wherever
            appropriate and some of these schemes include bonuses.


            Health, Safety and Welfare
            The Company takes the health, safety and welfare of its employees very seriously, with a strong
            conviction that a healthy workforce will always be highly productive. Top healthcare providers have
            been carefully selected to look after the healthcare needs of employees and their dependants. We
            comply with relevant statutory provisions and regulations on health, safety and welfare matters.
