Manila,
Philippines – Teleperformance Philippines recently announced its partnership
with Project Inclusion Network (PIN), a non-profit organization that works
towards realizing the potential of Persons with Disability to actively
participate in, and productively contribute to society.
In a recent
virtual event with its employees in honor of International Day of Sign
Languages, Teleperformance Philippines highlighted its commitment to providing
assistance and opportunities for people with disabilities through this new
initiative with PIN.
As part of
the partnership, Teleperformance will assist PIN in identifying employable people
with disabilities from their network of partner institutions, communities, and
organizations that teach and train people with impairments. Moving forward,
Teleperformance Philippines and PIN will be collaborating towards improving
knowledge and comprehension of behavioral concepts and processes in the
workplace, through increased productivity and integration.
Teleperformance
Philippines has been employing persons with disabilities across their sites.
Zeke, one of the staff of Teleperformance Citizen of the World (COTW) Store and
a deaf employee, shared his experience working in the company. “Just like me,
anyone – regardless of disability – can perform and contribute to the success
of [a] company. I am blessed to belong to a team that is fully supportive of me
and encourages me to be better.”
Operations
Manager of Project Inclusion Network, Jim Nemeno, also thanked Teleperformance
Philippines for their support throughout this project. "I thank
Teleperformance for this opportunity. We appreciate from the bottom of our
hearts the organizational, financial, and leadership support to promote
Disability inclusive communities," shared Nemeno.
Apart from
employment support, Teleperformance Philippines further cemented their
commitment to making more inclusive workplaces through a donation of one
hundred and fifty thousand pesos to help move forward PIN’s efforts, with a
promise of more to come.
Senior Vice
President for Human Capital Resource Management Jeffrey Johnson shared, “We put
strong focus on our Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion initiatives. We want to
make a concerted effort to provide employment to people who may otherwise have
had a hard time finding employment. I am proud of the work that the team has
done to truly move things forward.”
Teleperformance

just in time for their 25th year anniversary in the country. The certification
