Manulife Cambodia received the engagement proxy rate of 81 percent, one of the highest in the region. The results show that the organization’s employees are content and happy with the corporate culture they are immersed in.
The corporation is also a great promoter of equality in the workplace, and actively takes action to support the advancement of women in senior managerial positions. This acts as a symbol of the company’s dedication to manufacturing an inclusive and diverse culture which makes Manulife a great place to work.
There are top three main reasons why employees of Manulife Cambodia enjoy working for the company. The industry leader’s competitive compensation and employee benefits includes life insurance coverage, medical and dental insurance coverage, maternity insurance coverage, pension fund policy, paid leave and a global shares ownership program. Additionally, the corporation offers its employees the opportunity to learn and grow by offering them certified accreditation professional course like CAA, ACCA, LOMA and other leadership development programs.
