The COVID-19 pandemic has dramatically accelerated the need for public and private sector organisations to rethink their use of shared spaces to keep employees and citizens safe. Even with approved vaccines in Malaysia and some other countries, the need remains to scale proactive testing and health credentialing in a cost-effective and decentralised way.

Through decentralisation, individuals can control their health data in a way where trustworthy credentials can still be used to support access to shared spaces.

JLL has unveiled the Human Performance Indicator (HPI), a new formula that gives a comprehensive view of how different aspects of the workplace such as spaces, technology and culture combine to elevate human performance. The Asia Pacific HPI results, based on a study of 1,500 employees in five countries across the region, found that ‘High Performers’ thrive in a hybrid work model enabled by a wide range of sophisticated spaces, technology tools and work practices.

In collaboration with the EU-funded programme WeEmpowerAsia of UN Women, LeadWomen is inviting Malaysian and Malaysian-based corporates to expand on their gender diversity efforts by joining the upcoming Women's Empowerment Principles (WEPs) programs. The Implementation Training will happen in two phases, where two pillars will be addressed in each phase, with 3-4 months in between phases. The pillars that will be covered are Leadership, Workplace and Marketplace.
