Annual Report 1993-94

43 僱 員 福利 S t a f f Benefits 校方於年內亦致力改善各級僱員的福利。先是職工級員工於九三年三月獲納入僱員 終期額外酬金計劃，得於退休、因病退職、在職身故、校方裁員和離職時享有更佳福 利。接著，爲退休教職員及在職身故僱員家屬而設的醫療服務福利計劃亦獲校董會通 過，在九三至九四年度起實施。在大學任職不少於十年之退休全職僱員及其配偶和子 女，依新例可享用大學保健處提供之免費門診服務，以及按既定標準收費之牙科與義齒 服務。在大學任職不少於十年而在職身故之全職僱員，其配偶及子女亦享有同等福利。 其他尙待爭取的福利包括條件更佳的自置房屋津貼，以及一套全新的教師職稱系統 ——俾與海外同業比較時，能準確反映中大教師的身分地位。這兩項計劃須與政府和大 學及理工教育資助委員會轄下之院校仔細礎商，仍未有實質結果。 Quality control aside, the University dedicated much effort towards improving benefits to staff of all grades. Following the establishment in March 1993 of a Staff Terminal Gratuity Scheme for junior staff on Terms of Service (C) to improve their benefits in relation to retirement, invalidity, death in employment, redundancy due to reorganization, and leaving service, a new medical benefits scheme for retired staff and dependants of deceased staff was approved by the University Council for implementation in 1993-94. Retired staff members with 10 years' full-time service and their dependants are now eligible for free out-patient medical care as well as dental and prosthodontic services at prescribed charges provided at the University Health Service. Dependants of staff members who die in service after having served the University for 10 years or more are also eligible for such benefits. Other similar projects in progress include efforts to urge the government to extend the housing benefits currently enjoyed by civil servants and other subvented sectors to the UPGC-funded institutions, and attempts to adopt an entirely new system of academic titles that can better reflect the status and standing of the University's teachers vis-a-vis their overseas counterparts. Both matters are being discussed with the government and other local institutions of higher education. 教職員培訓及發展 Staff Training and Development 本校亦極重視教職員培訓及發展，經常鼓勵僱員進修，以配合工作需要或創造更佳 晉升機會。九三至九四年度共有二千五百多名僱員參與校方六種不同性質的培訓及發展 計劃，得益匪淺。 •教職員進修計劃：共有十五位教師及行政人員獲校方或校外基金給予獎學金、研究獎 學金或特別資助，在本港或海外專上院校進修、受訓，或做研究。 •暑期海外研究工作特別補助金：校方撥出七十三萬一千五百港元，資助廿六項計劃， 供教師在一九九四年夏季在海外開展優質研究工作。
