SDGs
Beyond financial aid, WMY promotes social integration to help foreign workers adapt to Malaysia. The company organizes cultural events, such as pop-up celebrations during Merdeka Day and Malaysia Day, which involve all nationalities of employees. These events encourage foreign workers to engage with local culture, fostering a sense of belonging and unity.
WMY also facilitates communication and understanding through "Project Rasa Sayang," a regular employee committee meeting where workers from different backgrounds can voice concerns and share experiences. This initiative promotes open dialogue and strengthens social cohesion within the workforce, ensuring all employees feel heard and valued.
Additionally, WMY provides practical resources to help foreign workers integrate. The company offers language books to assist workers in learning local languages for daily communication. Key documents, such as handbooks, the Code of Conduct, and training materials, are also translated into workers' native languages, ensuring clarity, and understanding.
In summary, WMY’s focus on financial support, cultural integration, and social inclusion reflects its ESGI commitment. By helping foreign workers adapt and thrive, WMY fosters a welcoming, inclusive workplace where all employees feel supported.
