Hand in Hand with the  company reform that has taken place over the last two years, one other important issue, that of staff welfare, has and is being brought up to date. This will ensure that the all-round staff packages will be enhanced and optimised.  This has been achieved through the collection of employees’ opinions by carrying out surveys and interviews undertaken by the Staff Welfare Working Committee which was formed last year for this very purpose.  Now  a series of staff benefit items from Marriage Leave & Gestures, New-born Subsidies, Study Subsidies, Group Merchants Discount Offers, Medical Coverage up to aged 65, Compassionate & Condolences Leave as well as Birthday Vouchers are now in place and applicable to all full-time employees.  There are other improvements as well as new items in the pipeline currently under consideration and these will likely be confirmed and implemented in the not too distant future.

在過去兩年多,宏力保安進行了多方面的內部改革,其中一項是檢討員工福利政策,並透過問卷調查和會面收集員工的意見,更成立員工福利委員會並邀請基層和前線代表加入,與管理代表共同商討;最近有多項福利事項,包括結婚假及賀金、育嬰奶粉津貼及添丁賀金、進修津貼、集團購物優惠、醫療保障至65歲、恩恤假及慰問金,以至慶生蛋糕券,都已經落實執行,並適用於全職員工,還有多項優化及改善建議仍在研究中,有待稍後進一步落實。

MSS has been using the GalliNet UK programme PeopleHours™, a Cloud-based Duty Rostering and Reporting System, for over two years, to manage all their frontline duties in Hong Kong.  Software updates as well as total commitment and support have been continually received from GalliNet and this has ensured the system runs perfectly and smoothly without faults.   Very recently the new SMS (Short Message Service) function of the programme has been developed and activated for guards to receive confirmations prior to duties.

 

Billy CHEUK, General Manager of MSS, describes PeopleHours™ as the best of its kind, in guaranteeing precise guard deployment and accurate payroll information.  Marcus KERR, CEO of GalliNet UK, is pleased to have MSS as a major client in Hong Kong and undertakes to offer seamless technical support in the development, operation and use of PeopleHours™ by MSS.
