In commemoration of International Women’s Day, we celebrate the culture we have built with the women at AYA. In keeping with this year’s theme “Embrace Equity”, we expressed our appreciation to women at office with the gift of flowers on 8th March, 2023.
Equity and flexibility are not just words for us. We have managed to truly embed them in our culture. Special appreciation goes to all inspirational women who help shape our organization.
While maintaining priority of products and services which are beneficial and convenient for our customers, AYA Bank remains vigilant and focused on supporting our internal customers, “Our employees”.
Since the prices of commodities have been rising at their fastest pace in recent months, the pressure of the cost-of-living crisis and resulting financial stress is a physical and emotional impact on our employees. The Senior Management of the Bank have decided to provide ‘Cost of Living Support’ to help our employees cope with unexpected hardships that place undue financial stress on them and their families.
Due to this kind of initiative, it is heartwarming to see our employees who will have some peace of mind on their cost-of-living burden and improved well-being. We are proud to give something back to our AYA family members.

On 24th September 2022, AYA Bank rolled out COVID-19 booster vaccination campaign for all staff in Yangon to help our people maintain strong protection from coronavirus disease. The vaccination arrangements were conducted at our head offices, ROWE office in Kyauktadar Township and River View office in Ahlone Township.
As part of the steps we have taken to decrease risk of coronavirus infection, we offered booster shot to all staff who were fully vaccinated for more than six months. AYA Bank further arranged booster shot in the following week for staff who missed the day to ensure the full coverage of our vaccination campaign. The campaign has been organized with the support of SML Medical and Diagnostics Center and more than 1700 staff received their booster dose.
Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, AYA Bank follows the guidelines of Ministry of Health and place preventive measures at workplace for both offices and branches. Maintaining a safe and healthy working environment for all our staff and customers is our top priority. Vaccination campaign is a critical step in the fight to COVID-19 and our heartfelt thanks to everyone working together to make this happen.

With the objective of encouraging people to keep practice of wearing mask outdoors, AYA Bank staff distributed face masks packs to the public, who passed by Sule Pagoda and visited AYA Bank. AYA Bank is actively participating not only in the development of health sector in the country but also the social welfare activities by organizing such awareness campaigns.
