CIB.O to discuss hybrid set-ups in Transformation Summit
The Cebu IT-BPM Organization (CIB.O) will be tackling the hybrid work model and the best type of work setup for the Information Technology Business Process Management (IT-BPM) sector in their annual Transformation Summit.
The summit’s Chairperson Darwin John Moises said that they met with national IT-BPO organizations and the Philippine Economic Zone Authority (PEZA) to discuss the country’s openness to the hybrid on-site and work-from-home (WFH) set-up.
He added that hybrid work will most likely be the future of IT-BPO workspaces as many functions can be done efficiently from home.
Meanwhile, CIB.O Executive Director Buddy Villasis said that many companies are willing to lose their tax incentives just so they won’t lose talent.
“In Cebu, we have seen some level of attrition relative to that because people are used to working from home than on-site,” stated Villasis.
He added that there is a reason to believe that the Marcos administration is leaning towards the hybrid set-up based on PEZA’s assurances to the industry.
CIB.O’s Transformation Summit will run from July 13 to 15, 2022. Big IT-BPM companies such as Accenture, Lexmark, Ionus, AyalaLand, JP Morgan Chase & Co., and RedRoot, are expected to attend the event.
