Occupational Health and Safety

CSHK places high importance on the health, safety and welfare of our employees. Taking a "safety first" approach, we adopted ISO45001:2018 to establish occupational health and safety management system and implement stringent safety measures to ensure a safe and hazard-free workplace.

Smart Safety, Responding to Potential Risks

To ensure site safety, the Smart Safety System, a module of C-SMART, has been implemented on all our new construction sites in Hong Kong in a standardised and systematic manner, with features such as early warning and real-time monitoring, as well as the use of data for safety analysis in an comprehensive manner to address potential safety risks.

Site Safety Training and Promotion

“Summer Rainbow” Safety Promotion Campaign

To strengthen site safety management during high-risk seasons, we organised the“Summer Rainbow” Safety Promotion Campaign from May to September 2022, during which the following measures have been implemented.

Organise special safety training for each month’s campaign theme and high-risk processes.
Organise comprehensive inspections every month by our safety person-in-charge, frontline management personnel, safety management personnel, sub-contractors’ representatives, and other relevant personnel on the campaign themes and high-risk processes, and make improvements as soon as hidden hazards are identied.
Require front-line management personnel to pay more attention to the health of workers. If any worker is found to be unwell, the front-line management personnel should ask the worker to leave the site and seek medical treatment in a timely manner.

Caring for Employees

Talent Management

CSHK has formulated a series of strategies to nurture talents in the construction industry. We strive to provide our employees with a diverse, inclusive and enjoyable workplace, better remuneration and benefits, and more training opportunities. In this way we can increase their belongingness and attract young people to the industry.

Offer competitive remuneration

By benchmarking against market indicators, we offer our employees a competitive remuneration package. We also link performance appraisal results to performance bonuses to recognise and reward exceptional employee achievement. We provide our employees with a variety of benefits, including year-end bonus, overtime work allowance, lunch allowance, travel allowance, car allowance, construction site safety operating allowance, paid annual leave, sick leave, overtime work compensatory leave, wedding leave, maternity and paternity leave, compassionate leave, examination leave, birthday leave, and care leave. Furthermore, our employees are entitled to benefits such as employee medical insurance, employee family medical insurance, wedding voucher, and long service award.

Encourage young talents to join the industry

Each year, CSHK works with local universities to organise information sessions and oncampus job fairs to break down stereotypes of the construction industry among young people. In addition, we have launched a number of training programmes especially for young talents, such as the “Trainee Engineer Training Scheme”, the “Hong Kong 'DoubleHundred' Youth Development Programme”, etc., to encourage young people to join the construction industry. We also formulated “Training and Management Measures for Core Talent” and“Training and Management Measures for Trainee Engineers” for young employees. We have established a career ladder for the youngsters to growth from young talents to core talents and finally executive talents. A robust talent development system is in place to support the implementation of our strategies and drive our reform and innovation.

Happy Worker

In 2021, we launched the Happy Workers APP for frontline workers. Workers use the APP every day to record their daily tasks, it helps to streamline their workflow, enhance their safety awareness and reduce the risk of work-related accidents, thus creating a happy workplace and life for all workers.

Workers can leave their comments or recommendations by using the Happy Worker APP and get rewarded with stamps in exchange for supermarket vouchers. “The supermarket vouchers are like a small gift, as a frontline worker , I feel being cared and respected from the company.

Talent Cultivation

CSHK continues to nurture young people into talents in the construction industry. We have established a well-rounded, multi-level "5+3+X" young talent training system, creating more opportunities for the youth to grow and develop. To help employees unleash their potential and broaden their horizons, we also organise a variety of activities through the "China State Youth Club" to encourage employees to develop themselves outside of work for personal growth and social value creation.

“Thousands of Homes for Maintenance” Scheme

Utilising our expertise in construction and engineering, we initiated the Thousands of Homes for Maintenance Scheme. The scheme aims to provide volunteer home maintenance services, such as safety handrail installation, water pipe check, and sink trap cleaning for more than 1,000 households in need, including disadvantaged grassroots families and elders living alone. These seemingly simple maintenance tasks could pose a significant problem for the recipients, threatening their home safety and quality of life for a long time. Therefore, we engage in this volunteer initiative with genuine concern and empathy.

Since 2021, we have provided home maintenance services for more than 500 households, engaging more than 301 volunteers in 2022 and contributing more than 5,685 volunteer service hours.
