We are proud to announce that Silk Road Partners is Sri Lanka’s First Company to Launch a 4-Day Work Week Program

How would we continue to deliver great service to our clients whilst giving our staff a well deserved break, every week? Our staff will be working on a roster basis, with their days off either on a Monday or a Friday, ensuring that there will be no disruption in the workflow within any department of the company. 

We have been investing heavily into our team’s culture, communication and collaboration skills, and facilitating them with the necessary automations to ease our transition. An emphasis was placed on prioritization, self-reflection, autonomy, and synchronization across the firm. 

With technology adoption streamlining efficiency, we expect employee productivity to increase substantially, over the next couple of months. This should also translate to a reduction in the number of hours spent working overall. 

The Doctor’s House, built in 1822 and originally an ayurvedic hospital, is situated in Matara, on the south coast of Sri Lanka. Offering great holidays since it’s 2016 launch, it’s home to one of the most famous restaurants and bars in the country.

The Directors engaged Silk Road Research to develop a bespoke financial proposal to obtain funding from a local bank. The team undertook a deep dive into the company’s financials to provide the bank with a precise, fact-based valuation. Focusing on both the financial and non-financial aspects of the business, the proposal resonated well with the bank.

Silk Road’s Company Secretarial and Outsourced Legal functions continue to assist the Doctor’s House team with governance, manage corporate administration, and provide ad hoc legal advice.
