Dagang NeXchange Berhad Annual Report 2019

SUSTAINABILITY REPORT DAGANG NeXCHANGE BERHAD 94 Employee Engagement As a company growing at a fast pace, our employees are becoming more mobile, autonomous and less engaged with the defined corporate culture. With this in mind, our GHR Division has increased our employee engagement activities, so that they are constantly engaged and aligned to the Group's vision, mission and goals. We collaborate frequently with them through various activities and provide open platforms on which we share common interests and work together to address any differences. After all, we depend on the commitment of our people to sustain our competitive advantage. In the year under review, DNeX conducted several formal and informal employee engagement sessions. Whistleblowing channel DNeX’s Whistleblowing Policy has been formulated with a view to provide a mechanism for officers and employees of the Company to report instances of unethical behaviour, actual or suspected fraud or dishonesty or violation of the Company’s code of conduct or ethics policy. This Policy is administered by the Group Human Resource Division and overseen by the Chairman of the Board Audit Committee. See "Code of Ethics and Whistleblowing Policy” on page 56 for more information. Promoting Work Life Balance and EmpoweringWomen DNeX wants to be an employer of choice, one that promotes business and personal life achievements. We believe that by offering the right support and empowerment to our employees, we are directly embedding human rights and encouraging a healthy work-life balance across all our business.
