Following mitigation measures taken last week to minimise the threat of coronavirus outbreak among Talents, HKBN Group (“HKBN” or the “Group”) announced today that, for the safety and well-being of its Talents and their families, the Group will remain vigilant by continuing to encourage office and back-end support Talents in Hong Kong (including Hong Kong Broadband Network, HKBN Enterprise Solutions and JOS) to flexibly work from home until 1 March 2020, extended from a previous end-date of 16 February.
As this extraordinary measure continues to be implemented, services and support for customers will remain in operation. To safeguard all front-line and core operational Talents, protective supplies such as face masks will be provided. In addition, split-office arrangements are ready to mitigate the risk of cross-infection. A robust plan is in place to monitor and review these contingency and business continuity measures as needed.
To maintain productivity amongst those working from home, HKBN’s IT team has empowered its Talents with remote access capabilities to ensure workflow continuity via virtual meetings and access to company systems.
