The wellness of our employees starts with their families and at OCBC, we build communities to support working parents. These employee resource groups, whether it is for parents with teenagers, single parents, caregivers of the elderly or parents of children with special needs, offer employees a chance to share their experience, learn from experienced and trained external counsellors and provide emotional support to each other. In partnership with Focus on the Family, we held Coaching through dialogues and modular experiential workshops to help employees gain the skills and knowledge to strengthen the family bond and launched the Parents Circle initiative to help parents tailor their parenting strategies to their unique child. We are proud to be awarded the Family Champion Award (Corporate) by Focus on the Family.

Mdm Wong Kwai Ying (in pink), together with 55 OCBC staff volunteers and 54 vulnerable seniors and youths from Thye Hua Kwan Moral Charities, Care Corner Singapore and Movement for the Intellectually Disabled of Singapore, were among the first to attend a preview of The Bicentennial Experience which showcases Singapore’s 200-year history. For 69-year old Mdm Wong, the show brought back poignant memories of the 1960s, when Singapore had just gained independence. “We worked hard to provide for our families and grew with Singapore. I remember my family moving into our first HDB flat. We had water when we turned the tap and could provide for ourselves because there were jobs. We have come so far!” #OCBCCares #sgbicentennial #sg2sg
