there is an increasing demand for home services. We recognize the need for a more stable and smooth network for tenants to work from home and for their children’s online learning, Signature Homes worked with SmarTone to deliver a series of 5G broadband network solutions that can be widely used by tenants in various units. To provide a more flexible and secure alternative space for its tenants, workspaces and study area were also built in our residential estates. Strengthening anti-pandemic measures Providing a safe environment for work and living Signature Homes has reviewed and improved its cleaning and anti-pandemic measures regularly. Since the pandemic outbreak, the anti-pandemic measures of all properties have been strengthened. For example, all frontline staff are vaccinated and have to take rapid antigen tests every other day, and disinfection measures have been stepped up in the residential estate, with more frequent cleaning of public facilities, and automatic hand-sanitizer dispensers installed in all common area for tenants and visitors. All units are fully disinfected prior to handover to tenants, and an additional services team is assigned on the handover day to explain anti-pandemic precautions at home to safeguard the health of our tenants. Signature Homes will also arrange pandemic testing services and assist with the purchase of rapid antigen testing kits, depending on the needs of individual tenants.
