A secretary’s role is to assist management to do the job-in other words help the manager to achieve results.

To understand Management is to understand corporate cultures. It is the Art of getting people to work as a team-effectively and harmoniously.

Top secretaries who have made the grade into Management have the entry qualifications, the right personality and have usually commanded the respect of their peers and superiors.

Secretarial teachers too, must have managerial skills if they are to teach secretaries to handle their jobs effectively.

The main reason why employees work is because of wages. Employees expect employers to pay wages according to the agreed terms in the contract of employment.

On the other hand Malaysian laws also state how pay should be paid and the benefits that should be provided either in cash or in kind. Laws also require that employers deduct employees' salary and contribute together with employers' contribution to SOCSO and the EPF. Further the laws also require employers to deduct employees? salary for income tax. Failure to follow the laws correctly may result in heavy penalties.

The workshop looks at the various benefits in kind or cash that should be paid to employees as well as making the necessary deductions and contributions for SOCSO, EPF and income tax

In our complex and fast changing world where the focus is always on how business and its processes can be improved. It is not uncommon to see changes made for the better almost on a monthly basis in certain organizations. Executives and leaders are expected to think on their feet, and emerge with brilliant ideas as and when required, which might be a challenge to most. “Off-the-shelf” or standard thinking is just not enough! To survive the cut-throat corporate world, creativity and differentiation is the key to find innovative solutions to difficult problems and make decisions in an environment in which there are lots of unknowns.

The fact of the matter is, creativity, in the business world at least, can be honed with awareness, knowledge and practice. It is a skill which can be learnt- at any age.

5S is the name of a workplace organization method that uses a list of five (5) Japanese  words: seiri, seiton, seiso, seiketsu, and shitsuke. The 5S pillars provide a methodology for organizing, cleaning, developing, and sustaining a productive work environment. In the daily work of a company, routines that maintain organization and orderliness are essential to a smooth and efficient flow of activities.

This methodology encourages workers to improve their working conditions and helps them to learn to reduce waste, unplanned downtime, and in-process inventory. While some Lean Six Sigma (LSS) practitioners consider 5S a tool, it is more than that. 5S is a visually-oriented system of cleanliness, organization, and arrangement designed to facilitate greater productivity, safety, and quality. When fully implemented, the 5S process increases morale, creates positive impressions on customers, and increase efficiency of an organization.

Employees will feel better about where they work, the effect on continuous improvement can lead to less waste, better quality and faster lead times. Besides increase productivity, improves quality, reduces cost, 5S also contributes for delivery on time, improves safety and improves morale. 5S is not a list of action items, but is an integrated concept of actions, condition and culture. To get the greatest success, the nature and implication of each “S” need to be understood by each employee from the top level to bottom and should be regularly practiced.
