Kakayanin ang stress despite all the hardships and challenges with the help of Multivitamins + Iron (Stresstabs)

(With proper diet & exercise)

With more than two years in the pandemic, we see the world transitioning to a more controlled phase of COVID-19. With businesses being allowed to operate at full capacity for Alert Level 1 areas, for example, we see more people going back to work physically, students attending face-to-face classes, or people being allowed to travel without regard to age and even comorbidities.

But navigating new changes in our lifestyles has never been easy. The never-ending adjustments have impacted the way people live, and among them, the people who have been most affected by stress were the frontliners who have to face the virus head-on. Each day, they have to battle the risk of contracting the virus as they take care of others, enduring long hours and days apart from their families to ensure everyone's safety. These challenges have mostly taken a toll on their overall well-being, resulting in stress, frustration, and exhaustion. It is, after all their calling, and showing compassion, that they work hard and live through these sacrifices to support their family and to look after the health and well-being of the entire country.

Jean Henri Lhuillier named as one of this year’s Master Innovator by Mansmith Innovation Awards

Cebuana Lhuillier President & CEO gets the nod for changing the face of micro insurance in the country through a brilliant fusion of brick and tech strategy

Jean Henri Lhuillier, the President & CEO of micro financial services giant Cebuana Lhuillier, was recently named as a “Master Innovator for 2022” by the Mansmith Innovation Awards, an award-giving body organized by Mansmith & Fielders, the country’s leading training and consultancy company.

Lhuillier was cited for revolutionizing the face of micro insurance in the Philippines—thanks to his ground-breaking work in making micro insurance more relevant in the lives of Filipinos. Based on the latest statistics, only 53.7M out of 111M Filipinos are covered by insurance. To date, 31% of the insured Filipinos was contributed by Cebuana Lhuillier Micro Insurance, the biggest attributor to date as cited by the Insurance Commission.

Cebuana Lhuillier captured the interest of the market especially from low-income communities by offering affordable micro insurance products that can be easily purchased in any of Cebuana Lhuillier’s over 3,000 branches nationwide, while also putting systems in place for easier claims payout through the same branches. This was made possible by Lhuillier’s keen support and commitment in the application of tech innovations as a means to augment Cebuana Lhuillier’s wide network of branches and partners nationwide.
