MetLife Hong Kong Named "Caring Company" for the Sixth Consecutive Year.


Ms. Carolyn Chung, Head of Corporate Marketing and Communications of MetLife Hong Kong, said, "We are honored to receive this recognition year after year.

MetLife Hong Kong held educational seminars to raise awareness of the rising trend of diabetes cases and their associated health risks.

MetLife Hong Kong is dedicated to promoting a culture of corporate social responsibility across all levels throughout the company. To encourage employee participation in volunteer programs, MetLife grants employees a full day of paid volunteer leave each year. MetLife's management team also takes the lead and shows ongoing support in many community programs, including Room to Read's Literacy Program, MetLife Health Day and the Pink Heels Race.

 

Launched by The Hong Kong Council of Social Service, the Caring Company Scheme aims at cultivating good corporate citizenship. The "Caring Company" logo is bestowed to organizations that demonstrate enduring efforts in caring for the community, employees and the environment.
