At Ascencia, employee well-being is a priority. A safe and supportive work environment helps our teams stay productive and engaged. Our approach goes beyond regulations. We provide health and safety measures, well-being initiatives, and career development opportunities that benefit our employees at every level.

A culture of safety & well-being at Ascencia 

Health and safety are built into our daily operations. We ensure that employees have access to the right tools, resources, and policies to work in a secure and comfortable environment. Our proactive approach includes regular workplace assessments, risk management strategies, and continuous improvements to meet industry standards. 

Workplace Health & Safety Policies 

Our policies are designed to protect employees across all roles. These include: 

  • Comprehensive medical coverage: employees have access to medical, dental, and vision insurance. 
  • Health surveillance: We conduct regular health checks and offer hepatitis vaccinations to ensure workplace safety. Employees also benefit from LPG gas usage workshops, and other health-related sessions. 
  • Workplace safety measures: clear safety procedures, emergency response plans, and proper training ensure that employees can work with confidence. 

Employee well-being initiatives at Ascencia 

We recognise that well-being extends beyond physical safety. As a One-Team culture, we celebrate achievements, organise off-site activities such as team-building sessions, and encourage collaboration across departments. 

The team working on a shift system also benefits from meal allowances and subsidised lunch at the head office, ensuring that they are supported in their daily work. 

Training & Development for a safer workplace 

Safety starts with knowledge. That’s why we provide: 

  • Sponsorship for professional certifications: employees can enhance their skills through certified courses. 
  • Access to online learning platforms: training is available via LinkedIn Learning and Coursera. 
  • Internal training and mentoring: Hands-on experience, job shadowing, and skill-building sessions ensure that employees are prepared for various roles.
