| Kenya Commercial Bank Moves To Junior Staff To Cost Cut. Posted: 17 Jun 2011 08:15 AM PDT By JUSTUS ONDARI, Employees of Kenya Commercial Bank who wish to retire early have two weeks to apply, as the bank shifts its restructuring process to junior staff, in a bid to cut operational costs while improving its profitability. East Africa's biggest bank by assets and deposits has announced that its board of directors has approved the offer of a voluntary exit package for willing employees under the process, which kicked off in January this year. "Employees who wish to take this offer have already been asked to forward their applications through business heads to the director of human resources by Thursday June 31, 2011," KCB chief executive, Martin Oduor-Otieno, said yesterday while announcing the appointment of another nine directors. He said employees opting for voluntary early retirement (VER) will get a three month's pay in lieu of notice, payment in respect of medical benefits and rebates of up to 40 per cent on their loans. "They will also receive severance pay of one and half month's basic salary for every year of service worked, among other considerations," he said. Unveiling of the new directors comes after another seven who were named early this month, a move that saw six senior managers leaving the bank. But the June 2 appointments ran into head winds five days later when, according to the bank, Mr Peter Maina Munyiri, one of the two former deputy CEOs who had been made chief business officer, Kenya, "opted to leave the bank under the voluntary early retirement programme." Mr David Thuo, head of treasury, left the same day. "The remaining roles of chief financial officer, chief business officer-Kenya, director marketing and director treasury, will be advertised externally this week," Mr Oduor-Otieno said. The bank seeks to cut costs, which account for 70 per cent of its income by instituting a new organisational structure created on the recommendations of McKinsey & Company. jondari@ke.nationmedia.com Related posts: - When Should An Employee Be Sacked?
