The “Best Workplace in Asia” award is a prestigious annual event organized by HR Asia Magazine, aiming to recognize and honor companies with outstanding HR policies, attractive benefits, and a leading working environment in the region.
The evaluation and selection process is based on the Total Engagement Assessment Model (TEAM). This tool directly and effectively assesses organizations of all sizes, focusing on three factors: Core Values (Core), Personal Values (Self), and Group Values (Group). Additionally, HR Asia conducts in-depth interviews to gain a deeper understanding of the companies’ HR policies, welfare programs, and corporate culture.
NCB has once again excelled, meeting the stringent criteria set by the organizers. This year, NCB is proud to be recognized as one of the best places to work in Asia with an impressive score of 4.6 out of 5. Notably, the bank achieved scores of 4.43, 4.67, and 4.71 for the Core, Self, and Group factors, respectively, surpassing the average scores of other participating companies.
Notably, when asked, “Would you recommend NCB as an ideal workplace to your family and friends?”, 94.4% of NCB’s employees agreed, compared to an average of 78.4% for other participating companies. This indicates the positive changes and improvements NCB has made in creating an attractive working environment, leaving a lasting impression on its employees.
This is the second consecutive year that NCB has been honored with the HRAA award. Previously, in 2018, 2020, and 2021, NCB also received the “Best Workplace in Vietnam” award from Global Banking & Finance Review (GBAF) magazine. This year’s prestigious international award further acknowledges NCB’s efforts in its comprehensive transformation, standardization of governance, development of competitive HR policies, and focus on cultivating high-quality talent to serve customers with ever-improving standards.
