(ICTSI) is raffling off new house and land units to qualified employees of MICT as part of its employee rewards programme.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo far, we have raffled off 40 houses to our pool of qualified employees. Each draw allows for five to 10 winners,\u201d said Christian R. Gonzalez, ICTSI senior vice president and head of Asia Pacific and MICT.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Five groups<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Qualified employees are categorised into five groups depending on the type of equipment or operational function they carry out and each group is entitled to a house and lot unit.<\/p>\n<p>This means that those working with quay cranes and rubber tired gantry cranes, as well as in prime mover operations, container yard operations and engineering and IT, are all able to participate in the draw.<\/p>\n<p>The move towards employee engagement and retention is an important focus for ICTSI and Mr Gonzalez stresses: \u201cGone are the days that dockworkers and stevedores are seen as plebeian. In ICTSI, to work in the port means you are a contributor to your country\u2019s economy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe value our people. That\u2019s why at the MICT, we enjoy a low attrition rate.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He added the programme may be rolled out globally.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Employees of Manila International Container Terminal (MICT) are being looked after with the opportunity to win a house.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":5507,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[],"sponsor":[],"class_list":["post-5506","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-asia-greenport"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/coastlink\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5506","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/coastlink\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/coastlink\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/coastlink\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/coastlink\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5506"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/coastlink\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5506\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5508,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/coastlink\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5506\/revisions\/5508"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/coastlink\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5507"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/coastlink\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5506"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/coastlink\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5506"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/coastlink\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5506"},{"taxonomy":"sponsor","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/coastlink\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/sponsor?post=5506"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
