2. The Rolls of Dragonair
The Chief Executive council (CEO), Patrick Yeung is the head of Dragonair . Next is the head of
corporate safety and quality who is Kwok Chan has direct communication to the CEO because
(For EG) if he doesn’t like something in the engineering dept then he can talk to the CEO and they
will change it. Because they don’t want something to go wrong while they are flying. Then is the
head of corporate communication which is led by Grace Lee. The corporate communication dept
are people in charge of the marketing. The General Manager of inflight services and general manager
international affairs is in charge of the cabin crew, and making sure the food gets on the plane,
this dept is led by Andy Wong. The general manager operations (GMO) is led by Captain Peter
Sanderson who is in charge of all the pilots, this is who my dads reports to. The head of
engineering is Darryl Chan the engineering dept is in charge of making sure the planes are in good
shape and that every thing is perfect. Next we have the head of personnel is Wendy Kwan. the
personnel gives out the money and is evolved with the hiring and the firing. Dragonair’s CEO
awnsers to cathay’s CEO who awnsers to the cathays board of directors who ultimitly awnsers
tothe shareholders ( shareholders own the company and can elect or fire the board of directors
if they don’t like how the company is run.

4. Dragonair’s system of
governance
A few years ago Cathay Pacific bought dragonair but
Cathay is a really good company so that was no
problem to the staff on dragonair. So cathay is 100%
shareholders of dragonair. The people that I just
mentioned are the people who are big bosses of
their dept. the rest of the people you can read
them. The system of governance is democracy
because the people vote for a CEO and other jobs.

5. the rights of dragonair’s
staff
- Companies like Dragonair have a manual (book) that staff are supposed to
read- it’s called company policies and procedures. This tells the staff many
things including how they expect the staff to behave in various situations.
- When hired, staff are given a contract or agreement with the company that
limits the amount the company can make the pilots work so they don’t get
too fatigued (tired).
- If there is a dispute between the company and the staff, we have a
discipline and grievance procedure that can be initiated (requested) by either
the company or the staff.
- There are also labour law enforced by the labour department, that the
company must respect and that state how the staff are entitled to be treated
