Connecting with Teams, Clients, and Customers During COVID-19

Luis Anthony Oliveros Published on March 25, 2020

Open Access BPO’s steps to protect and support our teams and business partners amidst COVID-19.

Our Operations and Support teams have implemented safe work arrangements for our staff. Our seamless business continuity planning ensures that our clients receive uncompromised service.

Flexible Work During Community Quarantine

After closely monitoring the situation, we classified our employees into two groups: those who are working from home and those who prefer to work on-site.

Desktop units have been deployed for employees working from home. Their shifts will proceed as scheduled.

Those who have chosen to continue working at our offices are coordinating with their immediate heads and managers. With the community quarantine enforced over Luzon, however, we organized a skeletal workforce as permitted by our Program Managers and clients for our Makati sites.

Safe temporary housing has been provided for employees who live outside Makati City and have no access to a work from home arrangement.

Adjusted Payroll Policies

We recognize the passion of our staff even more during this crisis. They will also receive extra allowances and benefits based on their work setup.

Those who have applied for the national government s financial assistance will also be duly assisted.

Health Care And Preventive Measures In And Out Of The Workplace

The safety of our team will always be our top priority. We have implemented the following preventive measures to safeguard our frontline employees’ health and security amid COVID-19:

  • Sanitary and health measures such as disinfection of offices and temperature check upon arrival
  • Strict monitoring of social distancing within offices
  • Best practices of proper hand sanitation such as frequent hand washing and use of alcohol or gel sanitizer
  • Health care assistance such as teleconsultation and COVID-19 testing for at-risk employees will be accommodated by our health partner

During this unprecedented time, we encourage everyone to comply with the government’s and health organizations’ directives to help prevent the further spread of the COVID-19 virus.

We will keep in touch as we receive updates regarding the situation. Thank you and stay safe!

Inclusive corporate cultures aren't built by accident, they are cultivated through continuous dialogue.

We recently brought our global teams together (both onsite at our Makati headquarters and virtually across our Davao, Taipei, and Las Vegas offices) for a dedicated Pride Talk focused on championing allyship and open communication in the workplace.

Led by Psychologist Riyan Portuguez, 𝘽𝙚𝙮𝙤𝙣𝙙 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙍𝙖𝙞𝙣𝙗𝙤𝙬: 𝘾𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙎𝙖𝙛𝙚 𝙎𝙥𝙖𝙘𝙚𝙨 𝙏𝙝𝙧𝙤𝙪𝙜𝙝 𝘼𝙡𝙡𝙮𝙨𝙝𝙞𝙥 focused on actionable frameworks to strengthen our culture of openness.

By engaging our cross-border teams in these crucial conversations, we improve workplace collaboration and ensure that every member of Team Open Access feels empowered to contribute authentically.

Cultivating an environment of safety and equality remains one of our highest priorities as a global organization.

Sharing a simple, but meaningful, #PrideMonth message from Open Access Vice President, Joy Sebastian as we continue the celebration with our wider community.

Pride is about belonging, respect, and creating a workplace where everyone feels seen, valued, and supported living their authentic truths. This week is a reminder that inclusion is something we build together, every day, through understanding, openness, and genuine connection.

At #OpenAccess, we stand with our #LGBTQ+ community and reaffirm our commitment to a culture where everyone can show up as their full selves at work and beyond.

Happy Pride!

Open Access BPO recently traded desk time for running shoes, turning Ayala Avenue in Makati City into a wellness zone for its team, families, and friends during the company's Fun Run 2026 on May 24.

Participants took on everything from a high-energy 10K run to a relaxed 1K stroll with their pets.

In an industry where burnout is an identified risk, events like this show what actual support for employee well-being looks like in practice.

Read the complete recap here to see how we champion employee wellness:

Instead of just talking about culture on paper, getting everyone out on the pavement builds the kind of genuine connection that keeps a team strong and motivated.
