AIA Singapore's remote staff to receive $1,000

The insurer will also allow flexibility in working arrangements.

AIA Singapore will grant employees $1,000 as work from home assistance, according to an announcement.

The lump sum is available to all permanent and contract staff. The insurer is working to extend flexible work from home arrangements for its staff, will allow them to customise their time and working arrangements, and will grant them additional days off.

AIA Singapore has also partnered with learning provider Hyper Island to co-design a digital mindset cultural programme, named Digital Ei8ht, to encourage employees to embrace experimentation and innovation, in addition to LinkedIn Learning where all employees have access to content such as customer experience, customer relationship management, digital and tech, and personal effectiveness.

Moreover, the insurer will be offering over 200 job opportunities through its various recruitment campaigns for those interested in wealth management and insurance associate roles. To support fresh and recent graduates, AIA Singapore is also joining the SGUnited Traineeships Programme to offer positions for digital roles such as data analytics and UX design.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
