Mr. Thuy 'plays big', lets employees take time off on their birthdays and still get paid

VietNamNetVietNamNet28/09/2023


Lien Viet Post Joint Stock Commercial Bank (LPBank), with Mr. Nguyen Duc Thuy (Thuy) as Chairman of the Board of Directors, has just issued a resolution on employees' paid leave on their birthdays.

Accordingly, employees are entitled to 1 day off with full pay on their birthday every year. This day off is not counted as vacation/leave, and is enjoyed according to bank regulations. In case the birthday coincides with a weekly day off, a holiday, or Tet, they are entitled to 1 day off in lieu on the previous or following working day.

Not only do LPBank employees get paid time off, they also get a cash bonus on their birthday.

This is believed to be the first time a bank has made such a decision. This is also rare among foreign-invested enterprises (FDI) in Vietnam.

As of December 31, 2022, the total number of employees working at LPBank is 12,203, an increase of 1,554 compared to 2021 and an increase of 50% (4,086 people) in the last 5 years since 2018. This means that every year this bank has to "sacrifice" tens of thousands of working days just to increase employee benefits.

At the annual general meeting of shareholders held in April 2023, Mr. Thuy said that, in addition to prioritizing sustainable development for the bank and ensuring the rights of shareholders, he will also focus on increasing the remuneration for bank employees.

For the first time in 15 years since its establishment, LPBank has decided to give bonuses to all employees on the occasion of April 30 and May 1. Accordingly, each employee will receive a bonus of 5 million VND, equivalent to about 60 billion VND spent by the bank.

According to LPBank's first and second quarter financial reports, the average employee income was VND 21 million/month in the first half of this year, an increase of VND 4.5 million/person/month compared to the same period in 2022. Although this income level increased sharply compared to the same period, it is only at an average level compared to the industry's income.

VietNamNet's survey of 28 commercial banks that announced their second quarter financial reports showed that LPBank's average employee income ranked 17th among these banks.

In what cases can employees take a leave of absence and still receive their full salary?

According to the provisions of the 2019 Labor Code, employees are entitled to take leave in 03 cases while still receiving full salary as follows:

- Holidays: As stipulated in Clause 1, Article 112 of the 2019 Labor Code, each year employees have a total of 11 holidays that they are entitled to take off work with full pay, specifically as follows: New Year's Day (01 day), Lunar New Year (05 days), April 30 Victory Day (01 day), International Labor Day (01 day), National Day (02 days), Hung King's Commemoration Day (01 day).
