As an affirmation of CDL’s proactive human resource policies and practices, CDL was named “Employer of Choice 2022” by HRM Asia, and also one of the “Best Companies to Work for in Asia” by HR Asia Awards Singapore 2022. As one of Singapore’s earliest corporate signatories to pledge support to the UN Global Compact, CDL has been upholding the principles of human rights and labour in its human resource practices. In addition, CDL has been a signatory of the Employers’ Pledge of Fair Employment Practices with the Tripartite Alliance for Fair and Progressive Employment Practices since 2008. With a workforce that is majority female, CDL is committed to empower women in its workplace and supporting their pursuit of careers and personal development. In 2017, CDL’s Group CEO joined over 1,600 leaders globally in pledging CDL’s support for the Women’s Empowerment Principles, established by UNGC and UN Women. Occupational Health and Safety As a responsible developer, CDL has continued to proactively engage and empower its key stakeholders, including builders, architects, engineers, and workers in adopting EHS best practices. For more than two decades, CDL has driven EHS excellence at its worksites and across its supply chain. Under CDL’s pioneering 5-Star EHS Assessment System established in 2001, all its builders must undergo quarterly EHS inspections and audits by an independent auditor, which grades them on a scale of one to five stars in areas including energy, water, waste, safety, noise and public health management. The CDL 5-Star EHS Awards launched in 2005 remains a core scheme to recognise exemplary builders and workers for their excellence in enhancing workplace safety, health and well-being. CDL has also introduced various innovative technology and construction methods since the early 2000s to enhance safety and productivity. Details can be found in CDL’s ISR 2023 pages 84-85. The occupational health and well-being of CDL employees, as well as workers at construction sites and managed properties, are vital for CDL’s long-term business viability. While no occupational diseases were recorded, there was unfortunately one fatality at Copen Grand on 13 December 2022. Immediate action was taken to investigate the cause and ensure further preventive measures were established. This is in addition to regular briefings and action undertaken to remind CDL’s contractors and workers of the importance of good health and safety practices on-site. Its overall minor injury rates are well below the national average for 2022, based on figures provided by the Ministry of Manpower. While the minor injury rates in CDL’s Corporate Office and Construction Sites remained below the national average, the minor injury rate in Managed Buildings exceeded the national average. Similarly, CDL’s overall major injury rates exceeded the national average mainly due to a single injury that occurred at the Orchard Boulevard construction site. Corrective actions for both minor and major incidents were immediately implemented, and learnings from all incidents were actively shared with the respective managers, EHS working committees and contractors. CDL takes a serious stance on occupational health and safety and is committed to continual improvement of safety practices. Standing Together with Stakeholders through COVID-19 Many of CDL’s tenants in Singapore and overseas were adversely impacted by COVID-19, particularly during Singapore’s Phase 2 (Heightened Alert), which saw a tightening of measures. CDL continued to work directly with them to navigate the operational challenges. This included providing rental, operational and marketing support to tenants adversely impacted by stricter measures. Since the beginning of the pandemic in 2020 and until 2021, CDL has committed more than $40 million in property tax and rental rebates. Close to 90% of CDL’s rental tenants have received rental assistance. Job Creation and Employment As of 31 December 2022, CDL has a total of 406 employees for its operations headquartered in Singapore, where most of its business in property development and asset management is based, excluding hotel properties.
