643 Cemex has won the top recognition by the People Management Association of the Philippines (PMAP) for human resource excellence at its APO Cement Plant in the Philippines.

PMAP’s prestigious Employer of the Year Award annually recognises outstanding achievers whose leadership, dynamism, and professionalism measure up to the high standards of PMAP.

“At Cemex we value our people because they are our competitive advantage: we know that by hiring only the best we ensure that our team’s health, safety and professional growth are top priorities. “As we continue to grow as a building solutions provider, we also grow with our people. Our employees are the organisation’s enablers, leaders, and future makers. This Award is dedicated to the men and women of our APO Cement plant who uphold the company’s culture of excellence,” said Pedro Palomino, president of Cemex in the Philippines.

Founded 56 years ago with more than 1,800 member companies and executives engaged or interested in human resource management, PMAP is the premier organisation of human resource professionals and managers in the Philippines. After almost five months of deliberation, screening, site visits, and judging administered by PMAP committees and a board of judges, Cemex was named the 2014 Employer of the Year for its transformation story, clarity of direction, strong corporate responsibility efforts, and impact on its community.

During the 38th PMAP Awards Night, Cemex was lauded for its exemplary performance as an organisation with a dynamic people management approach known as Cemex Cares, an umbrella programme that embodies a comprehensive offering on HR programmes and services aimed at incrasing employee engagement and achieving an ever more vibrant and progressive corporate culture.

“We keep innovating our HR programmes, always trying to enhance the employee experience. More than just being an employer, we strive to create a family employee experience,” said Maria Virginia, Vice President of Human Resources of Cemex in the Philippines.
