New Policy Promoting Wellbeing and Human Rights of Employees
- Family Welfare Program (FWP) Policy - Aims to provide comprehensive support and resources for employees and their families. Supports employees across ten dimensions defined by the Department of Labor and Employment.
Power Group Culture
- Our internal newsletters featured “BESTie” stories, which are articles contributed by employees to recount how they experienced B.E.S.T. through their peers. Powered By Good VIBES (“Vibes”) and Power Up internal newsletters helped reinforce ways of working anchored onto B.E.S.T. to achieve strategic goals and capability-driven strategies. Vibes also put the spotlight on a number of leaders across the company showcasing their B.E.S.T. practices and behaviors.
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DE&I)
- Workday HRIS demographics were updated to improve inclusivity and compliance by making “Sex at Birth” mandatory, adding optional fields for “Gender Identity” and “Disability” for voluntary self-identification, and removing prefixes (Mr., Ms., Mrs.) from auto-generated letters to promote gender-inclusive language.
- Established the first Employee Resource Group (ERG), “Women’s Circle” which aims to provide a safe, structured space for women and allies to connect, support, and empower one another professionally.
Committee on Decorum and Investigation (CODI)
- Created the new 2025–2027 CODI across all locations.
Emergency Contact (EC) and Next of Kin (NOK)
- Ensured that critical employee information is readily available in Workday HRIS during emergencies, enabling faster response and better support for employees and their families.
Recognized with Four OSH awards
- Received from safety organizations as a testament to our strong commitment to workplace safety and health, employee well-being, and compliance with Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) standards.
Implementation of the Life Saving Rules (LSR)
- Development and roll-out of the LSR Policy to guide and remind employees of the actions to be taken to protect themselves from injuries and fatalities at work.
