NEWS AND EVENTS

Held on 31 May 2013 at the Holiday Inn Singapore Atrium, the 31st FDAWU/NTUC/SHA Productivity Seminar cum Awards Presentation Ceremony saw the recognition of a record number of 56 deserving employees who were nominated by their respective organizations to receive the “Employee of the Year” award. 

The winners were presented with a certificate of commendation and a trophy by Guest-of-Honour, Mrs Josephine Teo, Minister of State for Finance and Transport.

In addition, the award ceremony also recognized hotels for their productivity efforts in the 4th Productivity Idea Award. This year, the champion team title went to Shangri-La’s Rasa Sentosa Resort for their simple idea of replacing ice-cube machines with more energy-efficient industrial chilled water dispensers and thereby making the operational task of serving iced water for meetings and banquets easier and faster.

Three teams, namely Equarius Hotel and Beach Villas at Resorts World Sentosa, Holiday Inn Singapore Atrium and Hotel Michael at Resorts World Sentosa were shortlisted by the organizing committee to receive Special Mention for their nominations.

The second segment of the programme saw the sharing of productivity initiatives by Mr Joseph Chu, Director of Human Resources of Holiday Inn Singapore Atrium, which won the Aon Hewitt Best Employers Award 2013.

More than 200 representatives from the union and the hospitality industry attended the event.

Our heartiest congratulations to the following winners of the “Employee of the Year” Award 2013!
