Creating an Industry-leading Work Environment for our Employees
Our employees receive competitive remuneration packages with a variety of benefits. In Hong Kong, these packages include medical care, retirement schemes and discretionary bonuses, while in the Chinese Mainland, in addition to social insurance and housing funds, employees are provided with medical care and discretionary bonuses.
Our employer branding strategy, launched in 2020, ensures that we continue to attract and retain talent. Our 2025 KPIs have targets relating to talent attraction and retention which support our long-term plan of being identified as a “preferred employer” by 2030. Our recruitment and onboarding experiences aim to bring our brand to life by leveraging technology, enabling a digitally-led process while preserving experiential elements.
In 2024, we made several enhancements to our medical benefit plans to give all Hong Kong employees and their dependents access to a wider variety of healthcare services. These included expanding dental coverage to all dental treatments; expanding preventive vaccine coverage to all types of vaccines and extending the coverage to frontline staff; providing mental health coverage; and expanding maternal subsidies to include pre- and post-natal check-ups and hospital delivery costs.

Continuing to Deliver on our Employee Value Proposition
Our reputation as a respected and valued employer – our Employee Value Proposition (“EVP”) – is defined by four core themes which reinforce our position as a modern, forward-looking and creative company that is proud of the mutual respect and trust that exists between employer and employees:

- Building Pride in the quality of our projects, and the imagination, invention and openness to innovative ideas that deliver ingenious and inspiring solutions.
- Building Futures, because long-term thinking is central to our commercial ethos, not only in the responsible, sustainable legacy we leave for future generations, but in the lasting and wide-ranging development of our staff.
- Building Communities by transforming the places where people live, work, stay, and play to best effect.
This EVP is part of our wider Employer Brand story in which the combined skills, imagination and creativity of everyone at Swire Properties have enabled us to transform the places where we operate, create new and thriving communities, and redefine our proactive responsibility for a sustainable future.
