Najeeb Al Ali, Director of DCCV, and Nalini Suresh, Project Facilitator of Money Matters, signed the MoU.
Under the agreement, corporates participating in the employee welfare programme will contribute about 40 per cent of its proceeds to a community cause. Employees of these member companies will be provided with tools and techniques to achieve financial freedom.
Najeeb Al Ali said: 'DCCV seeks to make a difference in all three layers of the society - the individual, the workplace and the community. In today's corporate world employees form a vital stakeholder base. However, they are not treated even-handedly, ethically or with respect, because corporate decision-making focuses almost exclusively on shareholder value. Corporations which engage in short-term thinking and cost-cutting measures to the detriment of employees are ultimately hurting themselves.
'Considering the vital role that employees play, compassionate corporates should sponsor this programme as an employee welfare measure. This initiative fosters loyalty while motivating staff members to be more productive and deliver quality performance.'
Nalini Suresh, of Money Matters said: 'Money Matters offers a series of financial literacy programmes, presented in a modular format to suit the specific needs of residents in this region.
'We offer unbiased, holistic solutions as we are not associated with any financial product or service provider. The objective is purely to educate, offer guidance and alleviate the stress generated by a less-than-perfect financial environment for employees.'*
