Amidst tighter labour markets and increases in cost, Matex very well understands the need for a supportive work environment to attract, retain and motivate talents who are looking beyond the pay package, but for greater work flexibility to fulfill both their work and family aspirations. Globalisation, technological change and changing family structures are redefining the way organizations have to engage their employees. Matex continues to review and update its own Employee Handbook, which is in accordance with the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, details our people’ rights and resources within the organization. All staff are invited to give valued suggestions and once approved can be adopted as part of the Code of Conduct in the handbook. |
