Recently, AIA China was one of the 36 companies certified by the China Top Employers 2013 program. Independent research conducted by the CRF Institute shows that AIA China provides an excellent working environment for its employees and takes care of all aspects of their development.
The CRF Institute, an international expert in human resource management and workplace research, has just completed this year's study of the human resource policies and practices of selected employers. Participating companies were evaluated in the following areas: monetary compensation, benefits, work environment, training and development, career development, and corporate culture management. Only those companies that meet the rigorous research criteria are certified as Outstanding Employers.
In recent years, AIA China has spared no effort in the development of local talent and working environment. In 2012, AIA China became the first foreign institution in the domestic financial industry to implement an overseas listed equity plan for all employees, another step in establishing and improving the concept of "total compensation" for employees. This is another breakthrough for AIA China in establishing and perfecting the concept of "total remuneration" for its employees. The "Employee Share Ownership Plan" completes the transformation of the individual employee into the dual role of laborer and owner of the Company, and reflects AIA's care for its employees and long-term planning for their pay and benefits.
