People

Our people enable us to grow and succeed. By investing in their learning and development, and their health and wellbeing, we ensure they are best placed to help Pacific Place thrive.

Promoting Health and Safety

All new frontline staff at Pacific Place receive induction training which equips them with essential knowledge, including health and safety training. In 2018, Pacific Place migrated from OHSAS 18001 to ISO 45001:2018 – a more stringent safety management system.

Developing Togetherness Through Volunteerism

In partnership with St. James Settlement, Swire Properties Community Ambassadors from Pacific Place and other departments visited the Blue House in Wan Chai, a Grade One historic building and one of Hong Kong’s oldest “tong laus” – an old-style tenement building. With their friends and families, the participants explored the heritage and culture of the nearby Wan Chai community through educational orienteering challenges.

Creating Inclusive Career Opportunities

The Upstairs Programme organised by The Upper House and the Hong Kong Down Syndrome Association for the second year saw 10 members of the Association take part in a job attachment programme at the hotel. After a few introductory lessons, they were each assigned to a hotel department – housekeeping, kitchen or guest experience – for one month, so that they could gain real-life skills and work experience.
