(Manila Bulletin) Bias against women remains to exist even today, including in the Philippines, with barriers that go beyond inclusivity and belongingness.
TaskUs, a provider of outsourced digital services and next-generation customer experience to innovative and disruptive technology companies, held a virtual roundtable discussion on the role business leaders in the Philippines and across the globe play in order to “Break the Bias,” in theme with this year’s International Women’s Day.
TaskUs leaders Victoria Alcachupas, Division Vice President of Integrated Marketing; Vina Paglicawan, Director of Wellness & Resiliency; and Regina Aguila, Vice President of People discussed discussed, among other topics, challenges that women face in the workplace and what organizations can do to support their female employees.
“I believe that the first step towards a gender-equal world is recognizing that bias remains to exist even today,” said Alcachupas.
“TaskUs is committed to being a part of the solution. Since the beginning, we have inculcated a culture of inclusivity and belongingness to our people. We focus on talent and skills, and not on gender identity or sexual orientation, race, background, religion, or any other societal segmentations. We believe that the more diverse the workforce is, the better.”.. Read More
