Promotion of Employee Engagement and Retention
BAFS places great importance on employee care, recognizing personnel as the most valuable resource in driving organizational success. We are committed to fostering employee engagement by ensuring that employees work happily, both physically and mentally, while also enjoying their work. This is a key factor in building strong relationships among employees and motivating them to perform at their best.

Remuneration of the President: The Board of Directors is responsible for approving the remuneration of the President, which includes short-term remuneration such as monthly salary and bonuses, as well as long-term remuneration. The Board of Directors considers and approves the remuneration on a case-by-case basis, following a review by the Remuneration Committee.

11. Director and Executive Development
12. Succession Plan
The Board of Directors recognizes that ensuring continuous and sustainable organizational growth is of utmost importance. A key factor in achieving such growth is BAFS’s human resources, particularly at the executive level. Therefore, the Board has promoted a policy for preparing Successors to systematically take on business management responsibilities. Having capable executives within BAFS will significantly contribute to its growth. Consequently, a structured and transparent selection process has been established, adhering to clear, tangible criteria, good governance, and business ethics to achieve BAFS’s objectives.
BAFS Group Succession Planning and Development
BAFS has established a transparent and appropriate approach to nomination and selecting individuals for key executive and senior management positions in advance. This ensures that BAFS secures leaders with integrity, capability, and readiness in all aspects, enabling continuous and sustainable organizational growth and competitiveness. To achieve this, BAFS has set the following criteria for selecting successors:
-
President
The selection process for the successor to the position of President will be conducted by the Nomination and Corporate Governance Committee. This committee is responsible for identifying and selecting candidates with potential from both within and outside the organization. The selection criteria include specific skills and qualifications essential to the business, experience in the energy sector or related industries, strong leadership qualities, vision, and managerial expertise that align with BAFS’s values and contribute to its business operations.
-
Assistant Director/Deputy Director and Director
BAFS has prepared a nomination and selection process to identify high-potential candidates from internal personnel at the department manager level and above. This initiative aims to ensure readiness before the retirement of Directors, Deputy Directors, and Assistant Directors. The approach and procedures are as follows:
- Assess the potential of eligible candidates using Leadership Competency as a key evaluation criterion.
- Utilize internationally recognized tools to measure and assess the potential tendencies of candidates.
- Conduct knowledge and skill assessments, including English proficiency, cognitive aptitude, managerial thinking, vision presentation, and interviews, with a selection committee comprising senior executives.
- Develop a structured development plan for selected candidates to prepare them for future vacant positions.
- During the tenure, candidates will undergo a systematic KPI-based performance evaluation upon completing the probationary period.
BAFS has established and developed a succession plan for senior management positions (Key Positions) through a foundational Leadership Development Program. This program includes tracking outcomes, collecting data, measuring results, and analyzing individual performance to formulate future development plans. Progress reports on development are presented to the executive team on a monthly and quarterly basis.
In 2024, 97% of personnel designated for senior management succession (Key Positions) completed all required training programs.
However, due to global economic volatility and increasing business competition, BAFS recognizes the importance of retaining and developing employees in high-demand positions within the labor market. These positions are particularly difficult to fill due to their specialized knowledge, skills, expertise, and experience, which require significant time to develop. As a result, BAFS has reviewed and identified additional Critical Positions beyond the existing senior management succession roles (Key Positions).
Additionally, criteria have been established for selecting suitable candidates to succeed in critical positions within the BAFS Group. More than 50% of these critical positions have already been successfully filled. BAFS will collaborate with senior executives, who represent these critical positions, to plan the development and retention of this talent pool in both the short and long term. Particular focus will be placed on enhancing senior leadership potential and management capabilities through cross-functional learning methods and stakeholder management strategies.
Moreover, BAFS has emphasized the development of human resources within the high-potential group of employees at all levels. In 2024, the focus was on developing employees from the supervisory level upwards to management. These employees participated in the Uplifting Leader and Young Talent programs, where they received training on various topics aimed at enhancing their management capabilities. The focus was on management, project organization and presentation skill.
