This year, approximately 30,000 employees from 581 countries in Vietnam responded to the Total Engagement Assessment Model (TEAM) survey, HR Asia’s proprietary employee engagement survey. MB is among the few banks to be given this award.

The result shows that the average score of MB is significantly higher than the average of the market, based on three criteria, Collective Organization for Real Engagement (Core), Heart, Mind, and Soul (Self), and Think, Feel, and Do (Group).

In addition, MB is highly appreciated for its resilience and efforts in prioritizing employee experience despite navigating uncertainty amid the pandemic.

Dang Minh Huyen, MB’s director of Human Resources, said: "HR digital transformation for the future lies at the heart of MB’s journey to become a leading digital bank in the region. Our digital-driven environment stimulates the new way of thinking, the new way of working, and the new way of leading, giving MBers opportunities to break the limits and achieve breakthroughs together."

Since 2020, MB is among the first banks in Vietnam to put a paperless office system into operation. Most documents are submitted, processed, and approved via an electronic office system. The bank has established the Learning and Creativity Center in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, contributing to creating an edge for MB to improve management skills and business activities.

MB is also well-honored in building a modern, friendly working environment that stimulates self-learning, creating an agile and dynamic workforce. The bank has set new standards for an ideal workplace, where all employees gain from the commitment of comprehensive care and opportunities to unlock their potential through diverse experiences and challenges.

Over the last three years, the number of MB employees has remained unchanged, while labor productivity has increased by about 25 percent per year.
