TMB Bank Public Company Limited, today announced the completion of its VOLUNTARY Early Retirement Program with 1,189 applicants having been approved to join the program, effective 30 September 2009. The program is a part of TMB’s efforts to transform the bank into a customer-centric, high-performance organization that has been enabled to better serve customers.
In August, TMB announced a voluntary early retirement programme which is eligible for employees aged 40 and above with at least 10 years of service.
TMB Bank Executive Vice President for Human Resources Mr. Thawatchai Techawatanawana said, “As part of our efforts to minimize any inconvenience to our customers as a result of our VOLUNTARY Early Retirement Program, we will be reviewing our processes to ensure uninterrupted customer service while accelerating the Bank’s plan to become a high-performance organization.”
He added, “TMB believes in making every opportunity available for employees to grow and succeed, and for this reason, internal applicants will receive first priority in all job vacancies, and the Bank will consider recruiting elsewhere only if there are no suitable candidates within the Bank.”
According to Mr. Thawatchai, 1,189 applicants or 94.7% out of a total of 1,254 eligible applicants were successful in joining the program.
