- PR

GMR Megawide Cebu Airport Corp. was recently recognized by the Social Security System (SSS) Central Visayas Division as one of its top employer awardees under the medium account category during its Balikat ng Bayan awarding ceremony last Tuesday at the City Sports Club, Cebu City.

“We are honored to receive this recognitio­n and it’s truly exceptiona­l that we have achieved the standards that are expected of us. This award is another milestone for GMCAC and a testament that we have kept our commitment to protecting the welfare of our employees which we have pledged to DOLE,” said GMCAC chief executive advisor Andrew Harrison.

In 2016, the Department of Labor and Employment declared Mactan-Cebu Internatio­nal Airport as the first airport in the country to be a Labor Law Compliant Zone. It is one of the 10 locators in Central Visayas that proudly bears DOLE’s labor laws compliant marker.

“As an employer, we remain compliant with labor laws but, we also strive to transform the journey of our employees as they work with us by continuous­ly engaging them and creating initiative­s that go beyond what is mandated by the law,” Harrison said.

GMCAC is a joint venture between the GMR Group of India and Megawide Constructi­on Corp. managing the terminal operations and other related areas of the Mactan-Cebu Internatio­nal Airport

The SSS Balikat ng Bayan Awarding Ceremony recognizes individual­s, employers, and organizati­ons which have faithfully complied to the SSS Law in terms of coverage, collection and giving out of benefits, accuracy and timelines of their submission of reports to SSS, as well as support of and participat­ion in SSS programs. /
