Asticom Creates 3,000 Jobs in 2021 to Support PH Economic Recovery
The Asticom Group of Companies created 3,000 jobs for Filipinos in 2021 to help address the job market crisis caused by the prolonged pandemic.
Asticom, a shared services company under the Ayala conglomerate, believes in providing beneficial impact to support the Philippine economy by playing matchmaker to those who have lost their means of livelihood.
The group continues to improve people’s lives through the help of its subsidiaries: information technology and business services outsourcing company Asti Business Services Inc. (ABSI), HR and Digital solutions provider HCX Technology Partners Inc., engineering firm Fiber Infrastructure and Network Services Inc. (FINSI), and logistics provider BRAD Warehouse and Logistics Services Inc.
“We are committed to creating opportunities for our fellow Filipinos at Asticom. Together with this promise, we also provide valuable talents and solutions for our clients through our shared services offerings and technology,” said Mharicar Castillo-Reyes, CEO and President of Asticom Group of Companies.
“Our diverse business portfolio and our subsidiaries support the realization of our mission of improving Filipino lives, especially in the midst of the ongoing health crisis,” she added.
Asticom’s expertise in providing the right people to its growing clientele opened several opportunities for Filipino job seekers amid a challenging labor market. The new jobs involve IT, HR, Accounting, Administrative, and Engineering roles in the subsidiaries.
The group also plays a key role in lowering the skills mismatch, an obstacle many individuals face. The skills mismatch, a divergence in available jobs and workers’ skills, is a critical factor in the 6.4% unemployment and 14% underemployment rates in the country.
In the next five years, Asticom projects to generate 15,000 job opportunities as it furthers its aggressive growth. It aims to capture a bigger market in Southeast Asia and tap more small-and-medium enterprises and startups in the country.
Asticom seeks to positively impact Filipino lives and contribute to the country’s economic recovery through its diverse business portfolio.
