FOR OUR EMPLOYEES

Hybrid Work Model as the Future of Work
KWAP is committed to providing its employees with a healthy work-life balance and understands the importance of
flexibility in today’s fast-paced working environment. In response to the ongoing pandemic, KWAP has taken the initiative
to introduce a hybrid working model that allows employees to work remotely for up to two days a week while maintaining a
balance of in-office work. To further promote the value of in-office collaboration, KWAP introduced “Blackout Wednesdays”,
requiring all employees to work from the office on every Wednesday.
KWAP believes that face-to-face interaction is critical to build strong relationships and maintaining employee
engagement. To support this goal, KWAP has implemented various initiatives to support hybrid working, including
signature events such as the HR Marketplace and Victory Team Mingling at Department (VITAMIN D). VITAMIN D
successfully completed its second year with an even greater level of participation than the previous year where a total of
20 departments took part in the initiative. These events provide employees with opportunities to interact with each other
and strengthen relationships while also allowing for creative self-organisation and team bonding sessions.

By prioritising employee well-being and work-life balance, KWAP continues to lead the way in creating a supportive and
engaging workplace culture that values flexibility, collaboration and productivity.

Supporting Mental Health

KWAP is committed to providing a supportive and healthy work environment for its employees. The Career Break
entitlement is a valuable addition to KWAP’s benefits offering, allowing employees to take time off to recharge, pursue
personal interests, or gain new skills.

To ensure a smooth implementation process, KWAP has established clear guidelines that cover the eligibility criteria,
application process, and terms and conditions of the Career Break. This initiative has been well-received by KWAP’s
employees, and as of 2022, four employees have taken advantage of the opportunity to take a career break.
In addition to the Career Break entitlement, KWAP offers individual therapy sessions through The Amity Wellness
Programme, which is part of the Employee Assistance Programme (EAP). This initiative demonstrates KWAP’s commitment
to the physical and mental wellbeing of its employees and is a testament to its investment in maintaining a healthy and
productive workforce. According to reports prepared by our EAP partner, Amity Wellness Programme was utilised by a
total of 14 personnel in 2022.

KWAP firmly believes that investing in its employees’ well-being will have long-term benefits for both the organisation
and its employees. By offering a comprehensive benefits package, KWAP is creating an environment that supports and
motivates its employees to perform at their best, leading to greater productivity and job satisfaction.
