EMPLOYEE TRAINING The Group has always been putting emphasis on talent cultivation and development, and believing that our improvements are based on the enhancement of employees in the aspects of technology, knowledge, attitude and awareness. Therefore, the Group has established a comprehensive and diversified employee training system, which forms the most suitable training plans for the employees in different departments, positions and levels through the integration of internal and external training. This aims to make joint improvements by strengthening the employees' abilities in various aspects and enhancing the Group's operational efficiency. Every year, each subsidiary of the Group formulates an internal training program, including the areas of production, quality management, administration personnel management and corporate culture for its employees. For example, Zhongshan Company has organized training in comprehensive database of drug research and development, in drug alert system software, and basic training for new employees in the area of corporate culture, administrative personnel management system and fire safety during the Year. The Group especially values training in production, and thus actively promotes four major types of training, including new employees training, on-the-job training, job transfer training and professional skills training. During the Year, Inner Mongolia Company has organized nearly 40 factory-level training. Through diverse methods such as collective teaching, case analysis, on-site drills and technical competitions, the training focuses on the areas such as mechanical operation, production environment control, construction safety, emergency response, environmental protection, laws and regulations and management skills. We are committed to providing both internal and external training for employees. Therefore, in addition to implementing internal training programs, each subsidiary has also organized a number of outdoor development training and activities. For example, Zhuhai Company has arranged production and quality technicians to visit the Zhuhai International Health Port during the Year. Participants can learn the principles of the intelligent statistical software Minitab and i t s ac t ua l ope r a t i on by a t t end i ng t he “Mathematical and Scientific Statistics and Quality Research and Verification” class, which has helped improve their daily work efficiency. For newly recruited post-tertiary students, Zhuhai Company has also organized outdoor development activities for them to t r a i n t he i r ab i l i t i es i n c ommun i ca t i on and collaboration, and hence to create a proactive team atmosphere. 31 Environmental, Social and Governance Report 2018 The United Laboratories International Holdings Limited
