The Management's Goodwill Visits

Launched in June 2013, DSD's “Goodwill Visits” programme aims to reinforce communication between the management and frontline staff for closer connection. Under the programme, the Director and Deputy Director of Drainage Services as well as other directorate staff pay visits to frontline staff at work sites to openly express each other’s concerns. In 2016-17, the management made 13 goodwill visits to communicate with colleagues at 20 operational sites.
