We also provide opportunities for employees to advance in their careers, thereby realising the goal of becoming the best workplace in the retail industry in Vietnam."

AEON Vietnam says it has established a code of conduct as a guiding principle for every employee to strive for positive and appropriate actions. Every month, all employees are updated and informed transparently about new policies or strategies from the board of directors.

Internal surveys are regularly carried out, such as the 'happiness survey', ensuring that all AEON employees are heard and able to share their opinions. Employees are free to contribute on topics that help improve working conditions and create an inclusive and cohesive work environment.

The retailer also organises various sports activities such as football and badminton. Employees are encouraged to maintain their mental health through community activities such as blood donation drives, tree planting day, and cleaning day.

With nearly 6,000 employees, the retailer also focuses on promoting a coaching culture to unleash the potential of each individual through activities such as career coaching, one-on-one coaching sessions, and team coaching.

With a continually expanding strategy and diverse business models, AEON Vietnam currently provides over 9,000 job opportunities for both external and internal personnel.

The company focuses on developing recruitment policies, enhancing the quality of training programmes, and retaining talents. Employees at AEON Vietnam have the opportunity to learn through various forms such as e-learning, mass open online courses, and both domestic and international training courses.

To contribute to sustainable development, AEON Vietnam focuses on sustainable activities in three aspects: environment, society, and economy. The 2023 CSI award demonstrates AEON Vietnam’s commitment to social responsibility, aiming to engage with the local community.
