PASHA Bank & Re|Bank Will Keep All their Employees
The beginning of 2020 was sadly marked by the outbreak of a global pandemic of COVID-19, which is having a very negative impact on the world’s economy. Consequently, many companies have had to make hard decisions regarding their employees.
PASHA Bank and Re|Bank shared their position on this topic with PASHA Holding, the large Azerbaijani investment group they are part of. During their recent online call, the CEO of the company, Mr. Arda Arkun, addressed the employees of PASHA Bank and Re|Bank to assure everyone that in 2020 the Bank will not make any redundancies due to COVID-19 alone. He also underlined that the company plans to be a long-term successful player in the Georgian market and thus will need to gain and retain competent personnel.
Mr. Arkun thanked the employees who work at the branches, as well as those working distantly to ensure flawless processes and provide clients with all the required services.
“It is very important at this time to ensure full service for the corporate and SME clients of PASHA Bank, as well as the retail clientele of Re|Bank. Quality has always been one of our core brand values and I am happy to see our team handling this crisis in such a professional way. Once again, we saw the importance of having the right people and processes in place,” Mr. Arkun said.
The employees of PASHA Bank and Re|Bank were also addressed by the CEO of PASHA Holding, Mr Jalal Gasimov: “In these difficult times for our countries, I call on each of you to stick to our responsibilities, adhere to the governments’ recommendations, follow self-isolation and social distancing, and support our countries in saving as many lives as possible. Please remember that we shall, hopefully, be able to bring back our economies to their normal pace once we are out of this dire crisis, but bringing lost lives will not be possible. As the PASHA Holding family, we will do our best in order to preserve economic stability both for our countries and for our employees. We have pledged not to allow any job cuts in 2020 in PASHA Holding and its subsidiaries and have continued to pay full salaries to all our employees”.
