TEKsystems provides tens of thousands of technical talent to our clients and connects great people to great opportunities. Based on the nature of our business, we have forged a People Oriented culture from Day One. Since our entry into the China market in 2008, TEKsystems has followed the Allegis Group values and culture, and complied with local laws and regulations, customs and traditions as well as, talent characteristics to form our own special TEKsystems workplace culture. That culture focuses on caring about the health and wellbeing of our people, promoting workplace diversity and inclusion, and actively embracing social responsibilities. Through these three pillars, we demonstrate our commitment to building the best workplace for our people.
Health and Wellbeing Programs for Our People
Beside the existing Corporate Employee Assistance Program (EAP), TEKsystems has launched various health and wellbeing programmes based on the characteristics of local employees, including activities around Mental Health Month, Gratitude Month, office yoga classes, “Early Bird” breakfasts, monthly TEKsystems Movie nights, etc. These activities are well received by all and help boost our people’s physical and mental wellness.
Diversity and Inclusion in Workplace
We host a regular Women in Leadership forum and invite female leaders to share their challenges and experiences at work; we provide more convenient office facilities and more flexible working hour options for working mums; we launched diversity and inclusion training sessions to educate people on workplace inclusion, fight against workplace discrimination and promote fairness and diversity.
Corporate Social Responsibilities
We live by our core value of “Serving Others” and have committed a total of 1000+ volunteer hours every year to supporting our local community and underprivileged individuals and groups. TEKsystems China pays special attention to the benefits of disabled children and has established long-term partnerships with multiple non-profit organisations locally to provide donations and regular volunteer service. Each year, we rally our people to give back to our community and make contributions to others. This is an important way to build up our inner spiritual pillar and help those in need at the same time. A great way for our people to gain happiness and satisfaction outside of the office.
In addition to the above, TEKsystems China also provides comprehensive training programmes, personal development support, courtesy gifts on special occasions such as weddings, births etc. to both inhouse employees and technical consultants. These are all well rated in our yearly employee satisfaction survey.
