Flexible Work Arrangements

Flexi-Time, Part-Time, Job Sharing and Telecommuting

Banyan Tree has a mix of flexible work arrangements which includes flexi-hours, telecommuting, part-time and job sharing. Teams are empowered to schedule their team roster so as to benefit from flexi-time while maintaining smooth operations of the company’s properties and services. The company does not practise formal tracking of employees’ company time and prefers, instead, to trust and empower them.

 

Employee Support Schemes

Honeymoon Benefit. When confirmed Banyan Tree staff get married, they receive the perk of a complimentary 3-night stay at any of the company’s properties. In addition, the couple is given a cash gift of US$500.

Complimentary Hotel Stay. Each employee is awarded a US$2,000 to US$5,000 worth of hotel stays every year on Banyan Tree properties. This benefit promotes family bonding; it can be accumulated over two years so that the employee and his or her family can enjoy an extended vacation.
