TP in the Philippines’ Pride participation culminated at the 2025 Pride Love Laban Festival, the annual event of the Quezon City local government unit (LGU) and Pride PH.

“Support for the LGBTQ+ community at TP does not stop at policy. It is reflected in how we train our people, how we build our teams, and how we hold ourselves accountable to creating work environments that reflect fairness and respect. I am proud of our people who participated in the festival, representing the workplace we continue to shape together,”  said Jeffrey Johnson, Chief People Officer of TP in the Philippines.

“We’re happy to celebrate Pride with everybody as TP believes that every individual deserves respect and equality,” said HR director of TP in the Philippines Neil Norman Littaua.

Beyond events, TP has institutionalized inclusivity in its operations through the conduct of Queertuhan sessions, an ongoing dialogue series centering on queer voices within its team to reflect on the meaning of belonging. Along with the Pride Fun Runs, these collective efforts demonstrate the company’s long-standing commitment to inclusion and diversity as lived out by TP employees from Luzon to Mindanao.

“At TP, our inclusion and diversity programs start from the ground up. We focus on making sure that everyone feels welcome [in the organization],” Johnson concluded.
