FEDEX Express Malaysia (FedEx) recently received recognition from three awards, namely the ‘HR Asia Best Companies to Work for in Asia 2021’, the ‘WeCare: HR Asia Most Caring Companies Awards 2021’ and the ‘Sustainability & CSR Malaysia Awards 2021’.
For the ‘HR Asia Best Companies to Work for in Asia 2021’ recognition, FedEx achieved 100% employee response to the Total Engagement Assessment Model (TEAM) survey, an employee engagement survey that provides leaders and organizations insight into employee feedback on their working experience in a company through a series of in-depth questions.
FedEx Malaysia claimed its spot on the awards list given that the preliminary survey results were well above the industry average in all categories.
“We take great pride in our workplace culture and employee engagement, as reflected in the results of this survey. We have implemented several employee-focused programmes which aim to cultivate positive and inclusive workplace interactions,” said FedEx Express Malaysia managing director SC Chong
As part of the ‘HR Asia Best Companies to Work for in Asia 2021’ industry recognition platform, FedEx also received its inaugural ‘WeCare: HR Asia Most Caring Companies Awards 2021’ award, in recognition of empathy and care being part of the organisation’s DNA and workplace excellence.
The 2021 WeCare award was presented to only 10 companies out of 270 companies in consideration this year, ranging from multi-national corporations to small and medium businesses.
The award organiser, HR Asia, Asia’s most authoritative publication for Human Resource professionals, in conjunction with Business Media International (BMI), has run the Total Engagement Assessment Model (TEAM) survey for almost a decade, becoming one of the largest employee engagement surveys across Asia.
FedEx was also an awardee at the ‘Sustainability & CSR Malaysia Awards 2021’, in recognition of its longstanding efforts in educating and inspiring young talent to cultivate an entrepreneurial mindset and creative thinking in international trade through its FedEx Express / JA International Trade Challenge (FedEx Express / JA ITC) and Young Enterprise (YE) Programmes. To date, both programmes have impacted over 8,000 students in Malaysia.
The award also recognises corporations that have the vision and commitment to creating a positive impact through corporate social responsibility initiatives that contribute to socio-economic transformation in Malaysia.
“This is part of our ‘People-Service-Profit’ (PSP) philosophy where we believe in taking care of and supporting our employees, which in turn enables them to provide outstanding customer service, thereby growing profit.
“We also believe that volunteerism and giving back to the local communities are fundamental to the employee experience. We want to help shape the leaders of tomorrow and have been focused on programmes that inspire young aspiring entrepreneurs who can build the successful businesses of the future,” concluded Chong. – Feb 24, 2022
