We believe that a successful company must contribute to the community in which it operates. We maintain a proactive involvement in a number of civic and environmentally related charities as well as providing support and development to our employees. Together with providing services to various not-for-profit entities, we actively support the local community with time and dollars.

We support our employees by allocating resources to training and development. We are continually looking to improve the working environment and introduce efficiencies in the work process.

We recognise that everyone and every firm, large or small, has a stake in the environment. Environmental considerations are an integral part of our daily operations. Over the years we have received accreditations for our conservation effort including participation in International Coastal Cleanup and Earth Hour.

Haysun Appraisal strives to add a positive impact to our people and to the community in which we belong. We encourage our clients, associates, and other companies in Hong Kong to look beyond the "business" side of their businesses, and find innovative ways to give back to the community. These can be as simple as adjusting daily operations to reduce carbon emissions.

As a community business, we can attest that harnessing our resources does in fact lead to material gains in operational cost. Some initiatives are not only good for the environment, but are cost efficient. Whether it is printing on less paper, or using energy efficient lighting, it's surprising how often such simple actions are overlooked or forgotten. That is why we would like to share our good practices:
