Develops a Positive Work Culture, BCA Supports Employees in Achieving Work-Life Balance

Jakarta, May 26, 2023 - The implementation of company values within the work environment of PT Bank Central Asia Tbk (BCA) has successfully responded to the challenges of the dynamic world of work. As a result of this work culture, BCA has been awarded as the "Best Companies to Work for in Asia" and the "We Care" award in the HR Asia Awards by Business Media International (BMI).

BCA Director Lianawaty Suwono said, "At BCA, we always provide equal opportunities for every individual to create collaborative teamwork in achieving the company's vision and mission. We instill the 'ONE BCA' work spirit, which applies the motto 'One Goal, One Soul, One Joy' to foster employee productivity within a strong sense of camaraderie. Above all, we aim to make BCA a preferred workplace that consistently provides space for potential talents to grow."

BCA realizes that high-quality human resources (HR) are valuable assets that need to be maintained in terms of their quality. A positive work environment will have a positive impact on employee satisfaction. To achieve this goal, BCA has an Employer Value Proposition (EVP) consisting of a Friendly Environment and Continuous Improvement.

Amidst the increasingly dynamic banking industry and changing individual behaviors, BCA has taken proactive measures by introducing a range of innovations and new breakthroughs to create a more adaptive, comfortable, and collaborative work environment. One such measure is the provision of long tables in workspaces to foster collaboration among team members, as well as the implementation of automation to enable employees to focus on more strategic tasks. Moreover, keeping up with the times, BCA also captures employees' activities on social media platforms such as Instagram @lifeatbca, reflecting the company's commitment to stay connected and engaged with its workforce.

The company provides various facilities and communities as platforms for employee development, encompassing both hard and soft skills. BCA's training programs are available in both online and offline formats, with a dedicated training center known as the BCA Learning Institute located in Sentul, Bogor.

BCA also prioritizes employee wellbeing through its WellCare program, consisting of four pillars: Career WellCare, Financial WellCare, Mind & Body WellCare, and Social WellCare. As an example, outside of working hours, the company provides various facilities and communities that allow employees to pursue their hobbies, as part of efforts to create a work-life balance. For employees who enjoy running, there is the Asia Run community; Asia Bike for cycling enthusiasts; Asia Lens for photography lovers; Asia Dance for dance enthusiasts, and even communities for online gaming enthusiasts. Each year, BCA organizes the BCA Sports and Arts Week (Pekan Olahraga Seni or Porseni) where different sports and art branches showcase their skills, both virtually and offline. These initiatives highlight BCA's commitment to fostering a holistic and supportive work environment that promotes employee engagement and personal growth.

Not only supporting physical health, the company also continues to pay attention to the mental health of its employees through the provision of free counseling services in collaboration with professional experts. In addition, employees are enriched with information about financial developments provided through COP/investment webinars.

As a form of appreciation from the company to talented individuals, BCA organizes internal activities such as BCA Innovation Award, Kaizen Championship, Finhacks, and other competitions to sharpen the critical thinking and creativity of its employees.

Rudi Lim, Executive Vice President (EVP) of Human Capital Management at BCA, added, "We are committed to continuously providing added value to the BCA family and the wider community. BCA consistently creates a comfortable and productive working environment for all employees because we believe that their comfort and satisfaction in their work will have an impact on customer service, as well as the reputation and capabilities of the company. Therefore, we always provide facilities that can support these aspects."
