Aon Hewitt, Sasin announce ‘Best Employers’

Despite a challenging business environment, where 54 per cent of chief executives identify people issues (including rising salaries, an inadequate leadership pipeline, and poor availability and selection of talent in the external labour market) as a critical business challenge, the best employers in Thailand have proved to be leaders in driving employee engagement to accelerate business results. Aon Hewitt defines “Best Employers” as those achieving 51 per cent higher profit than the market average.
Advanced Info Service was named “Best of the Best Employers”. Other Best Employer honours went to Advanced Contact Center, American Express (Thai), McThai, Mitr Phol sugar plants, Phyathai 3 Hospital, Swensen’s (Thai) and Toyota Motor Thailand.
In addition, Mitr Phol Bio-Fuel Co received special recognition as the Best Employer for Generation Y. Marriott International Thailand was also named Aon Best Employer through the global programme. “CEOs consistently rank people issues as a top challenge to their ability to create business value,” said Adisak Chandprapalert, managing director of Aon Hewitt Thailand. “Through the Aon Best Employers programme, [human resources] and business leaders can create real impacts by focusing on talent outcomes throughout the employee life cycle.”
Panuwat Benrohman, Aon Hewitt partner for talent, rewards and performance for Asia-Pacific, Middle East and Africa, added: “A significant part of driving employee engagement is delivering an exceptional employee experience all around.
