Everyone must be able to feel grateful for the efforts made by the management to improve the employees' welfare through salary raise, allowances, bonuses and incentives, and more conducive working environment. Pak Paul also said that as an employee, everyone must work with these principles: 
1. Integrity - the honesty in the behavior such as NOT using company facilities for personal business. 
2. Responsibility - the obligation to carry out the tasks to achieve predetermined corporate goals. 
3. Professional - working in accordance with the job description and taking the reward for the contribution made.

The Directors' staff advisor Darwan Siregar also added that all employees must always put in mind the two crucial elements: the LOYALTY & the LOVE for the Company.

The briefing also included a Q&A session and the employees participated enthusiastically by asking many questions such as around the plan to install online system that was expected to be realized in the near future since ATM facility was very important for a bank. Employees also suggested that the Company provided staff loans for the employees of the Head Office, considering the growing needs for housing, education, and other household needs. Questions were also asked regarding health insurance that would cover outpatient treatment as well as the presence of labor union that would act as a mediator between employees and the management to improve welfare, and not as an organization that would "disrupt company stability."

The briefing was concluded with a prayer led by the Head of sharia unit A.S. Faiquzaman. (FDT)
