At Corporate Gifts Wholesale Pte Ltd, we have always strived to provide high-quality corporate gifts, but today we’re excited to announce a significant milestone that highlights our dedication not only to our customers but also to the people who make it all possible—our employees. We are proud to share that we have officially been awarded the Progressive Wage Mark (PWM). This prestigious accreditation is not just a reflection of our operational success, but a testament to our commitment to fair employment practices, staff welfare, and inclusive growth.
In this blog post, we’ll explain what the Progressive Wage Mark means, why it matters to both our employees and our customers, and how it reinforces our values as a leading corporate gift supplier. By the end, you’ll understand why purchasing from Corporate Gifts Wholesale Pte Ltd means you’re supporting a company that’s making a real difference in society.
What is the Progressive Wage Mark?
The Progressive Wage Mark is a certification introduced by the Singapore Government to encourage fair wages, job progression, and skills upgrading among lower-wage workers. It forms part of the broader Progressive Wage Model (PWM) framework, which is designed to help employees in certain sectors, such as cleaning, security, and retail, achieve wage growth in tandem with their increased productivity and skills.
In essence, it ensures that workers are paid fair and progressive wages while giving employers the tools to develop and upskill their workforce. Companies with the Progressive Wage Mark are recognized for meeting these standards, setting them apart as responsible businesses that actively contribute to a more inclusive economy.
Why the Progressive Wage Mark Matters
In a competitive industry like corporate gifts, the focus is often on providing premium products at affordable prices. However, at Corporate Gifts Wholesale Pte Ltd, we believe that operational success is only possible with a happy and well-supported workforce. The Progressive Wage Mark embodies values that resonate deeply with us:
- Fairness: It ensures that our employees, particularly those in roles that have traditionally been lower-wage, are compensated fairly for their contributions. We recognize that every member of our team, from production workers to administrative staff, plays a critical role in delivering the high standards of service that our customers expect.
- Employee Development: The PWM encourages continuous skills upgrading. We invest in training and development programs that empower our staff to grow, not just within their current roles, but to aspire toward greater career opportunities. For example, employees involved in logistics or warehousing are given opportunities to develop leadership or technical skills, which in turn benefits our overall operations.
- Productivity and Quality: A happy and skilled workforce is a productive one. Our commitment to fair wages and development creates a positive work environment, which directly translates to the quality of our products. When you purchase from Corporate Gifts Wholesale Pte Ltd, you’re assured that the gifts are crafted, packed, and delivered by a dedicated team who take pride in their work.
- Social Responsibility: Achieving the Progressive Wage Mark isn’t just about meeting a set of criteria—it’s about being part of a national effort to uplift lower-wage workers across various sectors. We are proud to do our part in contributing to Singapore’s vision of inclusive growth, and we hope that by supporting our business, our clients are also supporting this mission.
