Through the young worker training series, quite a few young workers who were really shy could interact with each other very well. We established a WeChat group for the participating young workers at the start of the programme for the mere purpose of convenient communication during the programme implementation, but it turned out to be very good platform for them to socialise. In this group, they arrange meet-ups after work, or pour out their emotions when feeling anxious or stressed.

After attending our young worker training, some previously directionless workers now have clear career paths. They've proactively engaged in our activities, showcasing their potential. I advocate for face-to-face dialogue with young workers; they have expectations, and we have high hopes for them. Moving forward, we'll persist in creating opportunities for their growth and development.

The training has taught me a practical lesson in how to communicate and handle workers’ emotions. Before the training, I always talked to the workers in the wrong tone, I think it is because I didn’t receive much education and I have poor language skills. After the training, I realised I need to explain things more clearly to the workers, learn their needs and communicate with them in a way that is suitable for them.
