Through the Aon Best Employers programme, HR and business leaders can create real impact by focusing on talent outcomes throughout the employee life cycle."
Panuwat Benrohman, Partner, APACMEA Talent, Rewards & Performance, Aon Hewitt, added: "A significant part of driving employee engagement is delivering an exceptional employee experience all around. With users spending an average of 2.5 hours on their mobile devices daily, employees expect a consumer-grade experience from their interactions with their employers. Digital transformation in HR is no longer a luxury; it's a necessity - and Best Employers in Thailand are well-positioned to do that."

Once again, this year, all Aon Best Employers in Thailand have truly proven to be leaders in driving employee engagement."
