Teleperformance (TP) in the
Philippines has
been honored as 1st Runner-Up for the Gender-Inclusive Workplace
category of the United Nations Women 2024 Asia-Pacific Women’s Empowerment
Principles (WEPs) Awards.
As the only business
process outsourcing company to be awarded under the Gender-Inclusive Workplace
category, this milestone marks TP’s first recognition from UN Women, “the
United Nations entity dedicated to gender equality and the empowerment of women
and girls.”
“This award is a testament to our shared commitment to
champion women empowerment and gender equality across all levels of the
organization,”
said Toni Tompar, TP Women Chair and Executive Vice President of Operations. “It is an affirmation of the meaningful
progress we have made across the years in building a workplace where women are
empowered to grow, lead, and make an impact. Now, more than ever, we are
inspired to continue breaking barriers and driving change for an even more
inclusive future.”
TP’s high-touch and
high-tech approach was instrumental in the attainment of the award, with its
globally acclaimed and multi-awarded TP
Cloud Campus remote work solution complementing the efforts of TP Women, the company’s grassroots
employee resource group (ERG) of women-empowering-women.
Under the company’s
dedicated Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DE&I) program, TP Women has built a vibrant community
of women leaders and advocates, that provides mentorship, care support, and
regular engagement activities for over 35,000 women employees across TP’s 27
sites in Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao. Since its inception in 2019, TP Women
continues to hold spaces and provide a wider platform for women to share
experiences and strengthen their leadership capabilities.
In response to the
reconfiguration of the business landscape and new workplace dynamics, TP
launched its Cloud Campus solution,
further expanding and augmenting its operations in the provinces outside Metro
Manila. In 2022, TP established the Laoag Cloud Campus microsite in northern
Philippines, and then a second one at General Santos City in southern
Philippines in the same year as well.
Lauded locally and
internationally, TP Cloud Campus contributes to the growth of local economies,
bringing more rewarding opportunities for communities and, especially to
marginalized individuals such as solo parents, persons with disabilities, and
working students.
In particular, women
have greatly benefitted from the increased economic empowerment and
redistribution of domestic carework brought about by remote work opportunities
in the IT-BPM sector. Presently, over 60% of the workforce employed across TP’s
Cloud Campus hubs are women.
“Through programs like TP Women and TP Cloud Campus, we are
not only creating opportunities but also ensuring that every woman is heard,
empowered, and celebrated. We will continue to innovate and partner with
organizations like UN Women to gain more ground in championing women’s career
development and gender equality, within TP and across the communities where we
operate,” said Tanya Famador, Chief Operating
Officer of Teleperformance in the Philippines.
The UN Women
Asia-Pacific WEPs Awards is “the first regional awards initiative that
recognizes companies who are taking action for gender equality in the region
aligned to the Women’s Empowerment Principles.”
