TalentCorp Celebrates Progressive Malaysian Employers With Return Of LIFE AT WORK Awards 2023

Talent Corporation Malaysia Berhad (TalentCorp) today announced the launch of LIFE AT WORK Awards 2023 to celebrate employers with leading workplace policies in line with their commitment to the Diversity, Equity, And Inclusivity (DEI) agenda.

At the launching event, the Deputy Minister of Human Resources, YB Tuan Ts. Mustapha Sakmud commented that a globally competitive Malaysian work environment will attract talents with the best skills, and subsequently attract the best companies to invest in Malaysia. 

“By creating diverse and inclusive workplaces, we build a foundation for a vibrant and resilient economy. I call for all employers to take part in TalentCorp’s LIFE AT WORK Awards 2023 and be recognised for their commitment to a better workplace and workforce,” he said. 

The LIFE AT WORK Awards, part of TalentCorp’s on-going initiatives to assist employers to prepare for the future of work, started in 2013 with three (3) categories to celebrate women-friendly employers. Since then, it has expanded to eight (8) categories with distinct awards for Malaysian organisations, International organisations, Small-Medium Enterprises and Sole Partnerships, and Public Sector organisations.

Group CEO of TalentCorp, Thomas Mathew said that LIFE AT WORK winners have proven to provide innovative workplace policies that empower employees to thrive, and are role models for aspiring companies wanting to innovate their talent attraction and retention strategies. 

“Productivity is no longer measured by the number of hours employees are physically present in the office. The pandemic has also shifted our perspectives, and today’s talents prefer to work for companies that share their values.”

“Winning the LIFE AT WORK Award is a recognition of employers who have raised the bar for what it means to be truly progressive and inclusive,” he said.
