Tomorrow is made today. The coming years are dependent on what and how we do things at present. We believe in creating positive and sustainable social impact in the community we operate.

Corporate Responsibility (“CR”) is not just a catch phrase but forms an integral part of our business culture.

Whilst we strive for business excellence, we have not abdicated our duty to be a socially responsible corporate

citizen. We pride ourselves in embedding good CR practices in all our endeavors. We believe CR, when

consistently applied in our business processes and work related activities, will contribute significantly not just

towards our economic prosperity but the growth of the community.

As CR is a continuous process, we pledge to renew and strengthen our commitment to be a responsible

and accountable organisation. To this end, we had established our first CR manual, with defined framework,

objectives and guidelines for CR practices.

As a more holistic CR approach is paramount to the success of any CR initiative, our CR practices focused on

four areas i.e. the community, workplace, environment and marketplace;

1. Community – to assist communities;

2. Workplace – to recognize employees as company’s valuable asset;

3. Environment – to protect environment; and

4. Marketplace – to practice good corporate governance

Our Commitment in COMMUNITY: Caring the communities

We believe in making a positive and sustainable impact in the communities we operate. Our operations

strengthen economic growth through expansion of product and services, employment and the creation of

knowledge workers. Through initiatives such as Sponsorships, Charitable Contributions, Disaster Relief efforts,

we believe that we played a significant part in enhancing the living standards of the community.

Since the establishment of HeiTech’s CR Manual, we have focused our Community Programs on two areas:-

A. Young & Educational Development;

B. Social Development & Philanthropy

our continuing commitment

1. Young & Educational Development The nation can only face future challenges by fostering and improving education opportunities to

deserving students.

The Empowerment of Young Generation Programme:

In 2008, your Company challenged the employees to participate in an “Adopt a School” program, specifically

catered for schools that were located in impoverished areas. We met our objective of enhancing academic

performance by providing accessibility to the internet, and provision of IT and self-learning tools.

In 2009, we focused again on students from underprivileged households. We set out to enhance academic

performance, specifically for those in Year 6 and those gearing-up for their UPSR exams. We took on a broader

approach and invested on educational softwares, educational seminars, tutorial classes, sports programs and

pushed for individual excellence by awarding scholarships. There was a marked increase in the number of

students that achieved top scores in their UPSR exam. The success of this program has spurred the interest and

participation of hundreds of students and we remain committed to support such initiative and provide a platform

for future generation of Malaysians who have the intellect and keenness to pursue academic excellence.

Pahang. In line with its tagline, “Creating Future Innovators”, the resource center acts as a one-stop-centre for

knowledge sharing and creative innovations.

Knowledge Sharing with Future Generations: Educational Visits

Industrial Visit is an on-going initiative of your Company in offering students, mostly from colleges and

universities, to gain insight and nurture interest in the field of ICT. Every year, selected colleges / universities are

given the opportunity to conduct industrial visits to HeiTech and its world-class IT facilities.

In year 2009, participants were briefed on several of our breakthrough solutions, ranging from; Software

development, ICT Architecture & Infrastructure solution and RFID technology. It is our fervent hope that these

visits will ignite the interest and fuel the passion of the next generation of IT Specialists.

Fun in Learning English Camp

Your Company, along with Chenor’s cluster primary schools, successfully promoted and organised an English

Camp for the benefit of more than 150 pupils from thirteen (13) schools around Chenor, as well as, children of

HeiTechemployees.Thecampwasheldfrom12to14March2010,atSekolahKebangsaanKertau,Chenor,

Maran, Pahang. The camp provided a constructive environment for children to improve their command of the

English language through a combination of methods and fun filled activities.

Themed “We are 1”; the program stressed on the importance of friendship and teamwork, the critical component

in achieving the 1Malaysia aspiration . Participants were armed with knowledge and tools to help prepare them

for the upcoming UPSR finals in 2010. The program was divided into 6 modules that addressed key areas, such

as - speaking, listening and writing. The camp also saw the children undertake various tasks, which included

reading, story-telling, speaking skills through vocabulary enrichment, group work, treasure hunt and essay

writing.

Scholarship for Selected Excellent Students

Your Company embarked on the scholarship program in 2008 aiming for students in the rural areas who had

excelled in the Ujian Penilaian Sekolah Rendah (“UPSR”) examination. Two students were selected for this

program; Nooraniza Abu from Pekan, Pahang and Norain Syakila Ahmad Jamal from Chenor, Pahang. As the

adopted students of HeiTech, they were given the opportunity to benefit from HeiTech’s education scholarship

which will help them to fund their school fees, provide allowances, books and other things that relate to their

education purposes. Your Company consistently monitors their academic performance. Our long term vision is to

nurture our adopted students to be future leaders equipped with necessary knowledge and skills.

2. Social Development And Philantrophy

Your Company’s strategic community investment focuses on enhancing health conditions, alleviating poverty,

promoting social progress and increasing social growth.

can donate blood. This initiative amplified the need for all Malaysians to fulfil their social obligation and support

National Blood Centre.

scrutinized to meet stringent criteria, such as: builds goodwill for the company, offers value proposition across

all segments of society, embraces our corporate value and most importantly, its in-line with Government and

It is important that our employees work in a conducive and safe environment. The formulation and enforcement of

HeiTech’s established Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) Policy ensures all employees are aware of their role and

responsibilities and it is strictly adhered to in work environment. Our OHS complies with The Occupational Safety

and Health Act 1994 (OSHA 1994) and the Occupational Safety and Health (Safety and Health Committee – SHC)

Regulations 1996. Your Company continously provides training and awareness to employees on occupational health

and safety related matters ; hazard identification, fire drill, fire fighting and first aid.

In addition, employees are kept informed on healthcare management through health talks and circulars. During the

H1N1 pandemic, information was posted on the websites while circulars were sent to alert the employees on the

spread of the virus, and provided tips on preventive care and guidelines on home quarantine of staff that have been

infected by H1N1.

3. Equitable Work-Life Balance

In an ideal situation, employees seek out jobs that provide an element of flexibility, creativity and growth. Equitable

work-life balance is a crucial consideration for your Company as we believe happy employees result in optimum

productivity, improved morale and reduction in turnover and absenteeism. We support flexibility within structured

confines. Employees can choose between two set of working hours, 8.30 am – 5.30 pm or 9.00 am – 6.00 pm.

HeiTech’scorporate responsibility

Our Commitment in ENVIRONMENT

Your Company is focused on safely and reliably helping to meet growing ICT demands to improve the quality of

life for all Malaysians, while working to reduce the impact on the environment and enhancing our contribution to

the communities we operate in.

As an ICT company, we make use of our innovative solutions and technology to optimize the computing

environment in our business operations. Similarly, we take a serious view in improving our environmental policy

and performance to tackle problems that are associated to climate change and biodiversity.

1. Improving environmental policy and performance

Monitoring waste and energy consumption can greatly improve our environmental performance. Your Company

promotes the importance of reduce, re-use and recycle. We monitor overall usage of water, electricity,

air-conditioning, paper usage and printing and set targets for all staff to adhere to.

Since the implementation of these monitoring indices in November 2009, your Company has managed to reduce

print quantity through the introduction of a Multi Function Device (Print,Fax,Photocopy, and Scan). The MFD

machines are shared amongst several departments and usage is monitored and publicized through a centralized

database. Compared to usage of printing toner in 2008, the usage of printing toner has been significantly

reduced by 30%. As a result, the initiative not only yields savings, but also deters employees from unnecassary

use of paper thus resulting in reduction of waste and energy consumption within the company. In the future, the

company strives to achieve 50% cost savings and to reduce paper usage by 30%.

2. Protecting environment through “Green Technology”

Your Company made a bold move by being the first locally managed data centre to adopt energy conservation

operation in April 2010. In a move towards supporting the government’s aspiration of promoting green technology

and combating global warming, HeiTech’s deployment of energy saving device at its data centre guaranteed it

a minimal of 5% savings in energy bills per annum. But this is anticipated to increase up to 18% as this energy

conservation is gradually adopted throughout the company operations.

OurCommitmentinMARKETPLACE

the public sectors together so it may propagate and educate them on safeguarding their assets.
