Social responsibility underpins how we conduct
business at HG Metal. As a company, we understand
clients are not the only important stakeholders that
we need to look after. We are also accountable to
our shareholders, employees, the community at
large that we operate in.
WORKPLACE SAFETY
The well-being of our employees is one of our top
priorities. Our employees, who are our key assets,
deserve to work in a safe, secure and conducive
environment.
To instil a corporate culture of safety and ensure our
Health and Safety policy standards and procedures
are adhered to at all levels of operations, we conduct
safety trainings and send our people for external
courses to keep them up-to-date with new safety
developments pertaining to the steel industry. Our
staff must also complete the Safety Orientation
Course (Metal Working), and equipment can only be
operated by staff who have been properly trained.
We periodically service and perform maintenance
repairs on our facilities to ensure everything is
operationally safe and in proper working condition.
Together with close monitoring of our facilities, a
safe working environment is assured for everyone.
We have attained the bizSAFE Level 3 certification
awarded by the Workplace Safety & Health Council
and we endeavour to continually maintain and
enhance the safety conditions of our facilities.
PRODUCT QUALITY
The steel products in our extensive portfolio are
appropriately certified, some of which are approved
for use by the Building and Construction Authority.
As part of our strategy to enhance quality, we have
implemented a programme that helps to tag and
trace our steel products. From time to time, our
clients require mill certifications for their respective
industries and applications in order to ensure
they comply with the respective regulations. This
programme will enable us to quickly and accurately
provide them with the necessary information.
OUR PEOPLE
Learning is a lifelong process and we value the
importance of staff training and skills upgrading.
By keeping our people up-to-date with the market,
it helps to maintain and improve their productivity.
We see the need to invest in our people and nurture
talent from within. We have in place a talent
management programme that helps to groom our
leaders of tomorrow.
