Plantation Division’s employee turnover was primarily a result of
abscondment and expiry of employees fixed-term contracts. The
majority of employees who absconded are engaged in physical
labour such as harvesting, where traditionally the employee turnover
has been high. Improving retention is a critical priority for the Plantation
Division and as such, the division has ramped up efforts in building and
upgrading workers’ living quarters and estate infrastructure which are
complete with basic amenities, sundry shops, recreational spaces, places
of worship and internet connection.
The Manufacturing Division had reduced the size of its total contract
workforce in view of the present lower levels of economic activity
following the expiry of a major supply contract in the travel document
segment.
