GOVERNANCE - BOARD OVERSIGHT OF OSH

Occupational Safety & Health (OSH) matters are overseen by the Board of Directors through the Board Sustainability Committee, with execution and coordination driven by the Group Sustainability function.

The Safety & Health Team and the Sustainability Team work collaboratively under Group Sustainability, supported by specialized sub-teams including Legal, Emergency Response, Site HSE Committee, Internal Audit, Promotion & Awareness, and EAIR/HIRADC. This structure ensures strong integration of OSH within the company’s overall sustainability governance framework.

Safety & Health Structure

Key Governance Practices

  • Quarterly OSH performance review presented to the Board Sustainability Committee.

  • Board-approved HSE Policy with annual review of HIRARC and EAIR results.

  • Cross-functional representation in the Safety & Health Team and Site HSE Committees, including Safety Officers, Site Supervisors, and Project Managers, to ensure effective top-to-bottom communication.

  • Promotion and awareness programmes led by the Promotion, Publicity & Awareness Team to embed a strong safety culture across the organization.

HUMAN RIGHTS & LABOR RELATION

Our Commitment

MGB Berhad is committed to respecting internationally recognised human rights standards and fair labour practices in line with the ILO Core Conventions and the Employment Act 1955.

Our Human Rights Policy is Board-approved, reviewed biennially, and published on our corporate website for transparency

Key Commitment

  • Prevention of Forced Labour: MGB strictly prohibits forced labour, modern slavery, debt bondage, and human trafficking. Our policy clearly recognises coercion, withholding of identity documents, and threats of denunciation as violations and commits to eliminating such practices across operations and supply chain

  • Employee Representation: MGB respects freedom of association and collective bargaining, ensuring employees may form or join unions without fear of retaliation. Union membership or participation does not result in disciplinary action

  • Working Hours: Working hours comply with the Employment Act 1955 and the Employment (Limitation of Overtime Work) Regulations 1980. Employees are given proper rest days, and overtime is monitored and compensated per statutory requirements

  • Living Wage: MGB complies with Malaysia’s Minimum Wages Order, ensuring all employees receive timely payment at or above statutory minimums to protect them from exploitative low wages

Human Right Policy

Employee Engagement & Grievance Mechanism

MGB maintains a formal Grievance Mechanism separate from the Whistleblowing Policy, giving employees a safe, transparent channel to raise workplace concerns (wages, working conditions, supervisor issues, employee relations) before they escalate into disputes

Key Feature

  • Multi-tier process
    Acknowledgement within 3 days, resolution dialogues at department and committee level, and escalation to Executive Director if unresolved.

  • Multiple reporting channels
    E-Form, dedicated grievance email ([email protected]), or postal submission.

  • Confidentiality & fairness
    All grievances handled with impartiality, and employees are updated on resolution outcomes.

CSR

Our Focus Area & Objectives

At MGB Berhad, CSR is more than an obligation. It is part of our business strategy and reflects our role as a builder of communities. Our community investment approach focuses on three clearly defined areas:

  • Environment: Biodiversity and ecosystem restoration through initiatives such as tree planting, species adoption, and green awareness programmes.

  • Education: Exposure programmes for school children, empowerment for Orang Asli youth, and education support for children with disabilities.

  • Community Wellbeing: Humanitarian relief, blood donation, and social welfare support for underserved groups.

Each initiative is designed to connect meaningfully to our core business building sustainable, safe, and thriving communities while aligning with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDG 4 : Quality Education, SDG 3 : Good Health & Well-Being, SDG 15 : Life on Land) 1.

Our CSR Prorammes

Our CSR programmes in 2025 delivers measurable results and memorable impact:

In collaboration with Kembara Kitchen, MGB volunteers packed and distributed 500 meals to Ebenezer and Promise Home, recording over 200 volunteer hours. Staff personally delivered meals and engaged with residents, creating powerful moments of connection.

A fundraising bowling event in partnership with Rumah Mega Kanak-Kanak Orang Asli, empowering Orang Asli children through exposure and bonding activities. Funds raised went directly to children’s educational needs, bridging learning gaps for underserved communities.

57 volunteers, including top management, planted 500 bags of plants at Zoo Negara’s green zones, contributing to biodiversity restoration while learning about wildlife conservation.

Conducted a blood donation drive and organised a career exposure programme for school children, introducing them to civil engineering and construction through fun, interactive games.

Donations supported the Kiwanis Down Syndrome Foundation’s Early Intervention Programme (EIP), covering therapy costs for 120 children with Down Syndrome, giving them better opportunities for development at an early age.

Staff Volunteerism & Engagement

Volunteerism is central to MGB’s CSR philosophy. We set an annual volunteerism target of 500 hours, and in 2025 we surpassed expectations, recording 612 hours across multiple initiatives by September 2025, a significant leap from 68 hours in 2024.

More than just numbers, these activities united 134 employees from multiple departments, reinforcing teamwork and giving them a sense of shared purpose. Our aim is to make CSR fun, meaningful, and inclusive, encouraging more staff to participate every year and embedding a culture of social responsibility into our workplace.

Volunteers reported higher engagement and motivation after participating, demonstrating that when employees give their time to meaningful causes, they return to work with renewed energy and empathy, a win-win for people and performance.

Support for Children’s Rights

MGB’s CSR strategy supports children’s rights beyond prohibiting child labour. Programmes such as RKK Bowling, Kiwanis Treasure Hunt and Love Our Neighbours directly empower children through education, play, and therapy support.

By funding educational initiatives and creating safe, supportive environments, we affirm our commitment to protecting and advancing children’s rights in the communities we operate.
