CIMB Bank Berhad yesterday announced its enhanced paternity leave benefits to enable fathers to spend more time with their firstborn, and share parental responsibilities in welcoming their new baby into the world.<\/p>\n
This is in tandem with CIMB’s efforts to continuously improve employee welfare through gender-balanced policies.\u00a0<\/p>\n
CIMB Group’s Chief People Officer, Datuk Hamidah Naziadin said, \u201cThe experience of welcoming a child into the family is both joyful and overwhelming, particularly for new parents. These enhanced paternity benefits enable our eligible staff to play a more supportive parental role and establish a stronger bond with their firstborn.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is yet another initiative to show how CIMB values its employees by ensuring that they are supported in achieving a work-life balance, reflecting our overall effort to embrace global best practices on human resource management.”\u00a0<\/p>\n
Under the new enhanced policy, CIMB\u2019s paid paternity leave will be increased from three consecutive working days to one month (30 consecutive calendar days) for fathers welcoming their firstborn.<\/p>\n
The new policy, which takes effect on 18 June 2017, complements the Bank’s existing Staff Rejuvenation Programme, which allows staff to take up to six months unpaid leave for personal reasons – including extended maternity\/paternity leave – and maintain their current position or seniority at the Bank.\u00a0<\/p>\n
To demonstrate its commitment to staff well-being, CIMB had also earlier allocated up to RM1 billion for its interest-free housing loans for the first five years of loan tenure, together with a raft of other benefits, to help its lower income staff manage their monthly obligations.<\/p>\n
