A firm that provides expert advice and solutions in audit and assurance, tax, advisory, and technology consulting, R.G. Manabat & Co. has always espoused a workplace that supports the overall training and development of people, providing an atmosphere that is equal parts fun and professional when it comes to fulfilling clients’ needs.
For the company, mental health matters just as much as physical health. In 2019, it started its Employee Assistance or #KPMGishereforyou Program to build a positive culture of support in the firm where anyone can talk about their mental health struggles without fear of judgment and discrimination. This greatly helped its people cope with the anxiety and isolation that most felt during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic—boosting their mental health and well-being by providing the best possible support.
R.G. Manabat & Co. has adopted a Work for Excellence set-up wherein people can work from home, the office, or a client’s office, whichever is most conducive to creating excellent work. This work structure has enabled the organization to encourage flexibility and collaboration, allowing people to work from wherever they will produce the best results in terms of quality, efficiency and productivity.
