In partnership with the Junior Achievement Hong Kong for the sixth year, the Land Registry organised the Job Shadow Day on 22 May 2012 for 18 students from Cheng Chek Chee Secondary School and SKH Lam Woo Memorial Secondary School. Students in pairs were guided by a mentor who took them through the work of a unit of the Land Registry. Through the one-day programme, students were able to broaden their other learning experience.
As a committed corporate citizen, the Land Registry continues to participate in Labour Department's Youth Pre-employment Training Programme through providing a training place from May to June 2012. With guidance and assistance from our experienced colleagues acting as mentors, the trainee on attachment was enriched with work experience, confidence and a positive attitude towards work.
The Sunnyway Programme is organised by Social Welfare Department with an aim to enhancing the employability of young persons with disabilities or early signs of mental illness. As a caring organisation advocating equal opportunities for employees and eliminating discrimination in workplace, the Land Registry has joined the Sunnyway Programme for the fifth year. Our colleagues played an active role as mentors to help the trainees acquire job-related skills and work experience, build up confidence and develop good work habits for enhancing their employability in the future.
In July 2012, we released our Controlling Officer's Environmental Report 2011 here. The report states our environmental policy, objectives and environment management system. It also sets out the measures we have taken to minimise the impacts of our operations on the environment, our environmental performance in 2011 and environmental targets for 2012. You are most welcome to give comments or suggestions by email at ds@landreg.gov.hk.
