CIMA celebrates 60 years of delivering trust, opportunity and prosperity in Hong Kong

This year, The Chartered Institute of Management Accountants (CIMA), part of the Association of International Certified Professional Accountants, proudly celebrates 60 years of delivering trust, opportunity and prosperity in Hong Kong. 

CIMA’s journey in Hong Kong began in 1965, when a group of dedicated members established the Hong Kong Centre to advance and promote the accounting and finance profession. Eight years later, their efforts culminated in the formal opening of CIMA’s Hong Kong Branch – marking a key milestone in the Institute’s growth and influence across North Asia. Since then, CIMA Hong Kong has continued to support a vibrant community of professionals committed to driving excellence in accounting, finance, and business.

“Over the past six decades, CIMA Hong Kong has been a key driver in shaping the development of the accounting and finance profession in Hong Kong and North Asia. From championing the value of the profession to building strong relationships with stakeholders, our work has laid a solid foundation for continued growth and innovation. I am proud of what we have achieved to date, and I want to recognise the dedication and vision of those who came before us – their legacy continues to inspire us. I am excited for what is still to come,” said Vicky Li, FCMA, CGMA, Vice President – North Asia at The Chartered Institute of Management Accountants.

“I am honoured to be spearheading CIMA Hong Kong’s 60th anniversary celebrations and to see our community come together to mark this moment. This year, we celebrate not only six decades of success for our Institute, but also the remarkable achievements of our community. Our commitment to advancing and elevating the profession in Hong Kong is as strong as ever, and we will continue to build a supportive, forward-looking community that champions both personal and professional growth,” emphasised Paulus Chau, Director – Hong Kong and Emerging Markets at The Chartered Institute of Management Accountants.

“We are very proud to celebrate our 60th anniversary in Hong Kong, it is an extraordinary milestone that reflects the dedication of our members, students, volunteers, and partners. Together, we have made a lasting impact on the accounting and finance profession in Hong Kong, and I look forward to seeing what we will achieve in the future,” added Andrew Harding, FCMA, CGMA, Chief Executive – Management Accounting at The Chartered Institute of Management Accountants.

【職場熱話】公司突然Cut醫療保險合法嗎?打工仔必睇自保指南!

近期經濟環境充滿挑戰,不少公司為了控制成本,紛紛向員工福利開刀。最令打工仔頭痛的,莫過於公司突然宣佈「取消員工醫療保險」。這項本來用作保障健康的福利突然消失,到底公司這樣做是否合法?身為打工仔,面對福利縮水又有甚麼對策? 迷思一:法例有規定公司必須包醫保嗎? 沒有。 很多打工仔會將「醫保」和「勞保」混淆。根據香港法例,僱主必須為所有僱員購買「僱員補償保險」(俗稱勞保),以承擔僱員因工受傷或死亡的補償責任。然而,一般涵蓋平時傷風感冒睇醫生、洗牙或住院的「醫療保險」,在《僱傭條例》下並非強制性福利。提供與否,純粹是僱主任擇的「加分項」。 迷思二:公司單方面取消醫保,犯法嗎? 這取決於你入職時簽署的僱傭合約及員工手冊的具體字眼。 面對醫保被Cut,僱員可以點做? 如果你不幸遇上公司削減福利,先別慌張,建議按以下 3 步保障自己: 第一步:立即翻查僱傭合約及員工手冊 「口同鼻拗」是沒有用的,一切以白紙黑字為準。找出你入職時簽署的合約,仔細閱讀關於醫療保險的章節,確認福利性質(合約承諾還是酌情福利),以及公司是否擁有單方面修改合約的權限。 第二步:積極與公司溝通 / 集體反映 有時候,公司削減福利可能是因為保費大幅增加或短期資金周轉問題。建議透過員工代表或部門主管,向 HR 及管理層表達員工的憂慮。你們可以嘗試提出替代方案,例如: 第三步:尋求外援或法律協助 如果你發現公司的做法屬於「情況 A(明顯違約)」,而公司態度強硬拒絕溝通,你可以考慮採取進一步行動: 公司的福利政策往往反映了企業文化。如果公司在沒有充分溝通下隨意向員工福利開刀,或許也是一個警號,讓你要重新思考這間公司是否值得長遠發展。隨時上 CPJobs 更新你的履歷,發掘更重視員工福祉的好僱主吧!

【職場心理學】「你真係好好人」——職場做好人真係心好累

老同事叫你幫手cover,你答「OK」。 明明唔係你份工嘅報告,你做咗。上司突然笑住話「你最好㗎啦,幫吓手囉」,你又答應。有人要請假,組長望向你,你點頭。 你係個 office 入面從來唔拒絕人嗰個。你覺得自己有責任心、識大體、係個好員工。 但係年尾績效 review,你加人工加得最少。升職機會,留俾叫得出聲嗰個。你問上司,佢笑住話:「你知㗎啦,你咁好,去邊都得㗎。」 你笑住話:「係囉,謝謝你。」 返到廁所,你對住鏡望咗自己好耐。 有時喺輔導室,我見到唔少「職場好人」,坐低之後說嘅第一句係:「我唔明白,我咁做嘢,點解佢哋反而唔尊重我?」 你以為係你唔夠醒目、唔識爭取?唔係嘅。喺心理學入面,呢個叫「取悅行為」(Fawn Response)——一種透過持續迎合他人需求、避免任何衝突,令自己感到安全的應對模式(Walker, 2013)。成因可以係童年時學會「唔惹事就唔會出問題」,可以係職場上曾經開口卻被打壓,久而久之,「唔拒絕人」就成為你保護自己嘅方式。 問題係,喺職場裡面,你嘅「好」好快會成為別人嘅理所當然。你嘅邊界越模糊,別人越唔需要尊重你。 就好似一間便利店,二十四小時唔閂門——客人梗係唔會珍惜,因為你永遠都喺度。但係一間有排隊人龍嘅名店,有指定營業時間、要預訂,人哋反而珍而重之。你嘅時間同能量,係有價值嘅。邊界唔係叫你唔合作,係讓人知道你嘅付出值得被尊重。 一個小練習:今個禮拜,選一件「唔係我份工、但我成日照答應」嘅事,試吓回應:「我而家手頭有嘢要處理,唔太方便。」唔需要解釋多,唔需要道歉。然後停一停,覺察一下自己嘅感受——係唔舒服,還是有一種陌生嘅輕鬆? 第一次唔容易。但係你值得有人尊重你嘅邊界——包括你自己尊重你自己。 「係」係一份禮物,喺你真心想話「係」嗰時候先有意義。 今日,如果有人又嚟「你咁好,幫吓手囉」——停一停,深呼吸,覺察一下你心裡嘅第一個感受。 你唔係唔友善。而係你都係一個有需要、有限度嘅人。呢個人值得你善待。 參考資料Walker, P.
