Yuki Labores, a speaker in the Cebu Lived Experiences Forum, shared his thoughts on the impact of the event.
“Having a platform to tell our stories and be heard by colleagues and leadership is incredibly empowering. I’m happy to be part of a company that continues to recommit itself to efforts to create an environment where I and my peers can work with dignity and pride.”
OP360’s Pride Month celebration is part of its broader Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) program, which aims to cultivate a workplace culture that celebrates employees’ authentic selves and supports them in realizing their potential.
“These activities reflect our belief that Pride is not just a noun, but a verb,” said Atty. Tess Tan, Senior Director of Legal and Compliance and Executive Sponsor of Mariposa at OP360. “It’s an active, daily commitment to champion meaningful change and drive a more inclusive and equitable workplace where everyone feels they belong.”
