As an exercise in team cohesion and cultivation of a harmonious work atmosphere for staff, our Staff Club runs a variety of activities to help staff member maintain a healthy work-life balance. We have different sports courses, staff competition and “social hours” to build team spirit. We arrange tours and excursions to different attractions in Hong Kong throughout the year, where our staff and their family members spend some quality time together.
PolyU has also been organizing annual Work-Life Balance activities for University members to explore new interests in an active and balanced lifestyle. Since 2013, Work-life Balance Concerts have been held to celebrate healthy minds and bodies. In early 2014, after a series of auditions and stage production classes (on arts administration, stage management, set design, costume design, sound design and lighting design) as well as acting workshops, PolyU staff and students joined professional actors to put on the play Teahouse. They gained unique hands-on experience in stage performance and backstage production, and simultaneously found new passion and interests outside of their line of work.
