FRIED food and beverage chain Old Chang Kee got through the last 2 years of the pandemic without retrenching a single staff member, thanks to payouts from the Jobs Support Scheme (JSS).
As at March 2022, the company has 441 retail staff members, 101 factory workers and 54 employees in administration and other departments, said chief financial officer Song Yeow Chung. Of these, 80 retail workers are part-timers.
