Grab Philippines has strengthened its partnership with government-affiliated social protection agencies as part of the commitment to safeguard the welfare of its driver partners.
“We continue to recognize the hard work and dedication of our driver-partners as they ply busy thoroughfares daily just to ensure a better future for their families. Their aspirations realized and goals met inspire us to relentlessly develop impactful engagement programs that are tailored to enhance diverse aspects of their lifestyle,” CJ Lacsican, head of central operations at Grab, said.
As part of safeguarding driver welfare, Grab invited key partners from Social Security System (SSS) and Pag-IBIG Fund to encourage driver-partners to register as social protection agency members.
Grab recently organized a Grab Family Wellness Fair for its driver-partners at the Metrotent in Pasig. Geared at educating the community on the importance of adopting a healthier lifestyle, the event featured an array of free health services and engaging knowledge-sharing sessions.
“In our recent wellness fair, we zeroed in on proper nutrition, effective stress management, preventive care and social protection because we want to help them prioritize their own wellbeing, which is often overlooked due to the demanding nature of their livelihoods on the road,” Lacsican added.
With its long-standing partnership with government-affiliated social protection agencies, Grab also continues to create avenues for driver-partners to acquaint themselves with the available programs and services intended to help them create a stronger safety net for themselves and their families.
“We at Pag-IBIG Fund do all that we can to ensure that access to our benefits and programs remain inclusive. That is why we are happy that Grab PH shares our goal of improving the lives of their driver-partners by helping them gain social protection through Pag-IBIG Fund membership,” Alexander Hilario G. Aguilar, Pag-IBIG Fund deputy chief executive for member services said.
