CEBU CITY, Philippines – Member companies of the Philippine Financial and Inter-industry Pride in Cebu recently gathered to celebrate the group’s first anniversary. During its anniversary celebration, business leaders of the member-companies renewed their support to foster an industry that is safe and inclusive for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender employees in Cebu.

Mark Woolfrey, PFIP Senior Advisory Council member and executive general manager of QBE shared, “We started PFIP in Cebu last year with only 5 member companies. It has since grown to become 12 member companies. I look forward to seeing the community grow further in the coming years and help drive meaningful change in Cebu.”

PFIP, a non-profit organization, was formed six years ago in Manila to provide a forum to discuss the challenges of the LGBT+ community as well as other diversity and inclusion issues in the workplace. It also serves as a platform for member companies to share best practices. PFIP in Cebu was established on October 2018 and has since grown to have 12 member-companies including: Accenture in the Philippines, Coca-Cola, Cognizant, Conduent, HSBC, JPMorgan Chase, Lexmark, Manulife, QBE, Synchrony Global Services Philippines, Inc., Teleperformance and Telstra.
