management as it brought home four awards at the recently concluded 2nd Annual

Singapore, and Thailand, with commendable programs in employee management.
Entries are reviewed and judged by a panel of experts and thought leaders in the

where GCash was recognized for its program Uplifting Leadership, a
people-development initiative built on empathetic leadership and psychological safety.
Another
silver accolade was given for Excellence in Total Rewards Strategy,
acknowledging the wide range of reward programs and initiatives GCash has for
its employees as it fosters a reward philosophy that is centered around
individual contributions to the organization. These include corporate and

transportation, wellness, and calamity allowances, and flexible benefits.
GCash
