Manulife: Digital tools help improve work-life balance of Filipino parents
About 54% of Gen X and Millennial parents notice an improvement in their well-being due to the increased integration of digital tools in their jobs, said insurance firm Manulife Philippines.
In its latest study, Manulife revealed that the pandemic-driven digitalization and new normal conditions are already impacting Filipino families.
More than half (57%) of parent employees are experiencing less stress because of stronger family ties and better work-life balance.
Eighty-two percent of parents even said they bonded more with their families, while 72% attested they could take care of their kids more.
Notably, 45% of parents used remote work apps as they settled into hybrid work setups that allowed them to work from home.
The personal growth of Filipino parents also improved as they nurtured personal interests and hobbies while still being productive at work.
Manulife PH Chief Marketing Officer Melissa Henson explained, “Over the past couple of years, we have actually been commissioning a lot of studies to better understand our customers and get a good sense of how the pandemic has been impacting them, their behaviors, their outlooks, their attitudes, their goals.
The firm’s study was conducted last May 2022 in partnership with InSites Consulting via online self-completed questionnaires and included 500 Filipinos aged 18 to 55 from across the country.
