Sun Life Global Solutions Philippines gets GPTW certified for the 4th time in a row

Sun Life Global Solutions (SLGS) Philippines, a microcosm of the global insurance and asset management leader Sun Life, is once again certified as a Great Place to Work (GPTW) organization. This is the fourth consecutive year that the organization has received the certification and its first GPTW certification since it repositioned itself as Sun Life Global Solutions. The Survey results draw on the employees’ responses to an independently conducted survey by the Great Place to Work®, the global authority on workplace culture.

The outcome of the survey shows that 93% people feel that they are fairly treated regardless of their sexual orientation, 92% experienced fair treatment regardless of race or gender, 91% affirm that the workplace is physically safe, and 90% shared a sense of pride on being a Sun Lifer and would like to tell others about the same.

The GPTW award reflects the strong foundation we have built together as a team. A foundation that is powered by our Purpose and a culture of deep care. We care for the well-being of our clients, for their healthier lives and financial security. We care for each other; we are emotionally vested in each other’s success. What inspires me is the fact that our teams are the driving force behind constantly building a purpose and values driven, deeply caring and empowered workplace. Together we advance our Purpose to inspire brighter future for all those who count upon us, clients, colleagues, and communities,” said Tarun Sareen, Managing Director, Sun Life Global Solutions.

Adding to the thoughts shared by Tarun, Vice President and Site Head of SLGS Philippines Nathalie Bernardo also talked about how this certification is an inspiration for her to continue furthering the organization’s programs in diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging, employee recognition and advocacy work.

 

“We are truly grateful for this honorific by Great Place to Work as we continue to foster a culture that embraces diversity; champions work-life harmony; aims to unleash everyone’s full potential; is about purpose and teamwork at its core; and fulfills its social responsibility.  Our goal is for every employee to feel heard and empowered to make a positive impact both with the organization and in our community," Bernardo shared. The organization celebrated this feat during the recently culminated SLGS’ Moments of Togetherness and Celebration event.

What further makes it an employer of choice are the inclusive and equitable opportunities where each employee is encouraged to push their boundaries of imagination to solve for the business and the world. This culture of innovation is fueled by the collaborative and inclusive culture at SLGS where employees can grow and thrive, with a drive towards innovation, a commitment to Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging (DEI&B) and embedding a culture of sustainability.

Over the years, SLGS has emerged as a talent and innovation hub, driving seamless digital transformation and providing technology, knowledge services and business services to Sun Life businesses globally, helping its clients achieve lifetime financial security and live healthier lives – its core purpose and mission. SLGS works with Sun Life teams across the group to support clients in areas such as operations, technology, actuarial, legal, and more.

Tothapi joins Sony Music Entertainment family, releases new single “Kutsinta”


Breakthrough Bicol-based band Tothapi is the newest addition to the Sony Music Entertainment family, which includes some of the biggest OPM acts in the country such as Ben&Ben, SB19, Denise Julia, Clara Benin, Ace Banzuelo, O Side Mafia, NOBITA, Demi, The Itchyworms, Sponge Cola, Any Name’s Okay, and more.
_____________________________
The seven-piece band recently went viral on TikTok and received praise
 from Asia’s Songbird, Ms. Regine 
---------------------------------------------

“It has been an amazing ride with Sony Music Entertainment,” shares the band in the press statement. “The constant support we get from them to pursue our endeavors and visions for Tothapi has been unending. They also help us navigate our way through the music industry by giving us advice and letting us grow and discover new things.”

The rising jazz-influenced pop band recently went viral with their song “Celeste” and even received praise from veteran superstars like Regine Velasquez.

Now armed with a growing fanbase and a bigger reach, there’s no stopping Tothapi from taking the local shores by storm with the release of their first official single, “Kutsinta.”

The mellow crossover tune, which was written and produced by the band themselves, explores the beauty of being in a healthy relationship that sees love as more than just a feeling, but a manifestation of commitment and sacrifice.

The seven-piece act explains, “It is basically created through the lens of normal events in our relationships that matter the most: situations in a relationship that make it unknowingly stronger and ties both lovers more. The song also emphasizes how partners got each other’s back, especially at times of vulnerability.”

Totaphi adds, “Our band wanted to produce a pop-style genre that emits good-vibe energy and is love-driven. With this, we wanted our listeners to feel that they were in a state where they were content and happily in love while listening to Kutsinta.”

When asked about some of the recent developments in their career, Tothapi reveals that they’re in the process of writing more songs and performing more shows across the country.

“Future collaborations and new adventures are definitely at the back of our minds,” the promising newcomers share. “Overall, we hope to keep spreading happy thoughts to our listeners.”

Tothapi’s “Kutsinta” is out now on all digital music platforms worldwide via Sony Music Entertainment.

TPB Launches Enhanced Membership Program


Looking to expand and bring more opportunities to its membership program, the Tourism Promotions Board (TPB) launched its enhanced TPB Membership Program at Luxent Hotel last March 12, 2024.

Year 2023 ended with TPB having a total of 859 members from all over the country.

“In my short time with TPB, I've seen that you are truly the core of our tourism industry. There’s so much potential for us to transform the Philippines into a global tourism leader, and this vision is only achievable through our collective effort,” said TPB COO Nograles addressing the stakeholders at the event.

To strengthen the partnership between the agency and its members, TPB’s work plan for the year is to enhance its membership program. This will enable the members to prosper in the digital age, as they can learn how to leverage market intelligence through a series of modules.

Another benefit of the enhanced program is the inclusion of members in the Travel Philippines app. Members will be featured in the app’s directory and the destinations tab, making it easier for aspiring travelers to reach them for their dream vacation in the country. The app also allows members to advertise their promos to tap into a wider audience now that the number of users of the Travel Philippines app is steadily increasing.

DOT Secretary Christina Garcia Frasco expressed her support for the program

Department of Tourism (DOT) Secretary Christina Garcia Frasco gave a keynote at the event to show her support for TPB’s Enhanced Membership Program. She emphasized that the enhanced program and the inclusion of TPB members in the Travel Philippines app is a significant milestone for the tourism industry, as it increases the connection between tourists and local tourism enterprises.

“The app gives new markets and existing markets access to information about TPB members. In other words, wherever you may be in the world, you can simply open your phone and access information that directly links tourists to your companies,” stated DOT Secretary Frasco.

Also in attendance were Undersecretary Shahlimar Hofer Tamano, Undersecretary Ferdinand Jumapao, Assistant Secretary Rica Bueno, and Assistant Secretary Verna Buensuceso. Civil Service Commission (CSC) Chairperson Karlo Nograles, Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) Undersecretary Cristina Roque, Department of Transportation (DOTr) Undersecretary Roberto Lim, and Director Eduardo Pelaez also graced the event to show their support. Meanwhile, around 350 representatives from various tourism enterprises attended the launch.

The members’ inclusion in the Travel Philippines app and the special access to market intelligence are just two of the many benefits that enterprises can enjoy from TPB’s Enhanced Membership Program. TPB also offers networking and capacity-building, access to information and promotional materials, assistance for brand enhancement, and business opportunities for its program members.

Stream and work seamlessly with the Logitech MX Brio Ultra HD 4K Webcam

From the world leader in gaming and PC peripherals, Logitech introduces its latest tech innovation for improved professional streaming and virtual presence, the revolutionary MX Brio Ultra HD 4K Webcam.

The MX Brio is the latest and most advanced iteration of the Brio 4k, joining Logitech’s MX Master Series. It boasts its own list of outstanding features for smooth performance and clear video footage.

Capture every detail with absolute clarity and precision

Grainy and poor-quality video calls and streams are no longer a concern. Go into online meetings in breathtaking Ultra HD 4K resolution at 30 fps or 1080p at 60 fps, depending on your virtual requirements.

Every keynote presentation, team brainstorming session, or client catch-up calls are captured in real-time with life-like color accuracy thanks to the detailed webcam sensors that champion 70 per cent larger pixels than that of previous models.

This latest webcam also has two times finer image detail and face visibility even under low light or backlit situations. What’s more, the integrated AI face-based enhancement sharpens the image, balances exposure and light levels and reduces image noise all on its own for consistently crisp images.

Another noteworthy advancement with the MX Brio Ultra HD from its predecessors is its built-in, dual-beamforming, noise-reducing microphones that suppress environmental noises with the aid of AI for clear communication and to remove the need for external microphones.

Additionally, it includes a privacy shutter that you can rotate easily to block the camera for added security when not in use. Showing off notes, sketches and other physical references on your desk are also streamlined for your convenience.

Simply tilt the webcam down to show your work and collaborate better.

If you want to fine-tune the image quality to your preferred settings, you can do so by simply navigating the Logi Options+ and G Hub with Fine Controls. The Logi software, available on Windows and macOS, allows you to quickly adjust the exposure levels, lighting, white balance, ISO, tint, vibrance and even shutter speed.

Otherwise, the auto mode can alleviate that for you in a pinch.

The USB-C port enables this device to support USB 3.0 standard Logi software and works with multiple operating software. It is also compatible with Zoom, Microsoft Teams, WebEx, Skype, FactTime, Google Meet, Streamlabs, and OBS.

Eco-conscious engineering

Not only does this high-end webcam change the game virtually, but also environmentally. It is sustainably made from certified post-consumer recycled plastics -- 82% for Graphite and 75% for Pale Grey variants -- to minimize carbon footprint.

With Logitech’s sustainability efforts, the MX Brio is certified carbon neutral, offsetting environmental impacts without compromising quality and performance.

Intrigued? Get your very own MX Brio for only P12,199 (SRP) on Logitech’s official Lazada and Shoppe store. You may also visit www.logitech.com and Logitech stores for more information and product availability.
