in the workplace. Recently, Towngas hired more
disabled people for different roles across a range
of departments, and will continue to provide them
with training to realise their talents fully. We ask
our people to observe high ethical standards and
comply with professional codes of conduct.
Over the past year, Towngas has organised
activities, including cooking contest and sign
language workshops, and hired hearing-impaired
people at their headquarters. We are glad to see
the Company continue to contribute to enhancing
the work skills of disabled people.
