SOCIAL People Excellence Closing Generational Gaps Our Urban Solutions business area organised a forum on managing a cross-generation workforce, designed to explore effective strategies for bridging generations and harness the strengths of different age groups. This initiative aimed to help managers unlock the full potential of their teams and drive organisational success. An external speaker was also invited to share their expertise on generational dynamics and workforce management. The discussions and sharing at the forum provided valuable insights on how the organisation could effectively navigate the complexities of a multi-generational workforce. Enhancing Intercultural Understanding An intercultural training programme is provided for new international employees joining EFW to help them assimilate to working and living in Germany. Through the programme, they gain a better understanding of the German culture and history, especially if they are working in Germany for the first time. Advocating for Persons with Disabilities In support of the President’s Challenge initiative in Singapore, ST Engineering signed the Enabling Employment Pledge to affirm our commitment to adopt an inclusive mindset towards employees with disabilities, create barrier-free workplace environments, and implement supportive employment policies for employees with disabilities. In addition, we also signed up to be an Open Door Employer under the Open Door Programme, a project funded by Singapore’s Ministry of Social and Family Development (MSF) and Workforce Singapore, which aims to encourage employers to hire, train, and integrate persons with disabilities (PwDs) at the workplace. We also collaborated with organisations that support PwDs to run workshops focused on disability awareness and inclusive hiring and internships. These initiatives exemplify our collective commitment to fostering a diverse, equitable, and inclusive workplace for our employees. 46 ST ENGINEERING | SUSTAINABILITY REPORT 2024
