Allianz Philippines’ efforts at employee
engagement, corporate social responsibility, and special and experiential events
were honored at the 17th Philippine Quill Awards.
The Philippine Quill is a prestigious awards
program that honors the most reputable organizations and corporations for their “excellent communication to
achieve business goals, and to make a difference in society.”
“These awards show our commitment to empowering
our workforce and the communities we serve to overcome the challenges that come
their way. We at Allianz are very honored that our efforts have been
recognized,” said Allianz Philippines Chief Marketing Officer Gae Martinez.
Allianz received top honors for its Dare 2 Be Fit
in the Employee Engagement category, Project Sanlahi for the Corporate Social
Responsibility category, and Day of Courage for the Special and Experiential
Events category.
Through its Dare 2 Be Fit project, Allianz
encouraged its employees to participate in physical and mental challenges that included CSR activities. Its main
objective is to help enhance
their health and wellbeing and, at the same time, promote team spirit and
create an overall positive impact in society.
Through the project, Allianz emphasized that a
healthy workforce is a productive workforce. At the same time, it showed that a
socially conscious workforce is not just beneficial for the company, but to
society as a whole. While it started out as fitness challenge among employees, it eventually became a company-wide program that
encouraged employees to be good to their overall health and well-being and, and
likewise make worthwhile contributions to the community.
Its Project Sanlahi, meanwhile, celebrated the
strength of indigenous peoples, particularly the Aetas of Porac, Pampanga, by
introducing them to the rising sport of obstacle course racing (OCR) and giving
them the opportunity to learn about financial literacy.
As most of the Aetas expressed interest in
pursuing professions outside their community, the OCR and financial literacy
activities showed that they can move forward and have a better life for
themselves and their family. Through Project Sanlahi, Allianz likewise showed
the importance of social inclusion, that one can pursue one’s dream no matter
what his or her present circumstances are.
The Day of Courage project involved the holding
of three different events on the same day with the unified message of
encouraging people to have a better life by living it with courage. These included the Heart Run in partnership with the
Philippine Heart Association; The Allianz Conquer Challenge, an obstacle course
racing activity in partnership with Conquer Challenge
Philippines; and the Bayanihan Walk for Filipinos in Singapore.

“As our tagline goes, ‘We dare you to, because
we’re with you.’ We came up with these activities with this in mind, and we’ll continue to create more
projects like these that would benefit society at large,” Martinez said.
