Construction Industry Council - Annual Report 2024

CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY COUNCIL 192 OUR SUSTAINABILITY JOURNEY Our Operations Driving Environmental Stewardship uplift The HKIC – Kowloon Bay Campus, is exploring the CLP Power Hong Kong Limited’s Peak Demand Management Programme to assess opportunities for reducing energy consumption during peak periods. The CIC-ZCP will enhance its adoption of clean energy and advance energy efficiency measures. Harnessing AI for Smarter Operations We will also integrate AI-powered CCTV systems to enhance safety and operational efficiency at our premises. These systems will provide real- time insights, including detecting anomalies, monitoring PPE compliance, and optimising parking management, demonstrating how technology can elevate workplace safety and efficiency. Fostering Community Spirit To strengthen stakeholders’ engagement and foster a culture of care, we will continue to organise sports and volunteer activities to build community connections and encourage active involvement across the industry. Championing Safety First Safety continues to be a top priority with initiatives like Life First Walk the Talk, the second phase of the Design for Safety Pilot Run Scheme, the CEO Safety Tour Programme, the CEO Safety Forum, Master Classes in Safety Leadership Culture, and the expansion of the 4SLS, which promote best safety practices and innovative safety technologies. Building Ethics and Social Responsibility for a Better Business Environment We will support the promotion and education for implementing Construction Industry Security of Payment Ordinance (Cap. 652) to improve the delay payment problem. We will also uplift the Repair, Maintenance, Alteration and Addition (RMAA) sector through seminars, videos, and publishing technical reference materials and manuals to promote fair compensation, safety, professionalism, and higher standards.
