Importance of Ergonomics at Work

During December 2021, several parts of Malaysia, particularly in Selangor have been hit by massive flood, and have affected many of our colleagues. Through our Scientex family compassion and initiatives, we have pooled our resources, and extended necessities and cash assistance to more than 150 of our colleagues and affected communities at Durian Tunggal, Melaka.

In Scientex, our people safety and health is one of our top priority. In February 2022, we have invited an expert from Sunway Medical to host a webinar on the topic “Importance of Ergonomics at Work” to our people. The goal of ergonomics is to reduce stress, eliminate injuries and disorders associated with the overuse of muscles, bad posture, and repeated tasks.

In our battle against the COVID-19 pandemic, we ran virtual educational talks to instill the importance of getting vaccinated to our staff and participated in the Public-Private Partnership Covid-19 Industry Immunisation Programme (PIKAS) and Construction Industry Vaccination Program (CIVac) by CIDB to enable rapid vaccination of our workforce.

Our corporate office regularly organises blood donation drives to meet requests for blood donations from government hospitals. During the pandemic, the blood donation drive was conducted with all standard operating procedures and precautionary measures undertaken to ensure proper hygiene and safety volunteers.
