COMPETITIVE BENEFITS
CMS makes it a priority to ensure that all our remuneration
and benefits are above the enforceable statutory
minimum. Our pay rates and benefits are reviewed
regularly to ensure that they are in line with the jobmarket.
We believe in fair pay and benefits for all workers and
monitor all issues regarding income inequality closely.
Summary of Benefits
Flexible Working
We have provisioned flexible working (flexi-time) for full-
time employees who cannot commit to normal working
hours. An employee is eligible to request a change in
their assigned work role or work environment due to any
of the follwing conditions:
• A severe health condition certified by a medical
practitioner;
• An extenuating crisis that impacts the employee’s
well-being and affects his or her work focus/quality
on a short or long-term basis;
• Attending to or supporting an immediate family
member’s medical care; or
• Other reasons approved by the Management.
In 2016, an employee was allowed flexi-time for a
duration due to justified personal needs. A specified
duration was agreed upon by the employees and the
Head of Department.
Educational Assistance
Qualified employees are eligible for educational
assistance twice in the course of their employment. In
order to qualify for this benefit, employees must:
• Be a full-time and certified employee;
• Have been in continuous service for at least one year;
• Pursue a course directly related to their position
or that will improve their job performance and
contribution to CMS; and
• Pursue a course approved by the Public Service
Department (JPA) or accredited by the National
Accreditation Board (LAN).
Employees may apply for a reimbursement of fees after
completing the course. This is subject to the approval of
our management. Three employees successfully applied
for educational assistance worth RM20,000.00 each
during the year in review.
EMPLOYEE HEALTH
Health Screening
We are responsible for protecting the health and well-
being of our workforce. Our ongoing health screening
benefit provides a holistic health advantage to the Group
and its employees. Monitoring and understanding
health-related issues can help mitigate the risks of major
or harmful illnesses that may affect our employees.
Employees aged 40 and below are subject to health
screening twice a year while employees above 40
years old are subjective to it annually. 240 employees
underwent Health Screening in 2016.
