On October 14, 2019, HPPEMC has reached another milestone. As part of its expansion program, HPPEMC has opened up its doors to other IT/BPO companies in the Philippines. The objective is to allow employees outside of DXC and HP to join HPPEMC as Associate Members and share the benefits of being part of the Cooperative. HPPEMC is especially offering itself to small IT/BPO companies that don’t have enough number of employees to put up a cooperative. Other larger IT/BPO companies who may lack the time or capability to start a cooperative of their own, are also welcome. 

ITSM Corporation became the first IT/BPO company to join HPPEMC. With offices in the Netherlands and Australia, ITSM Philippines has about 60 employees and is in the business of providing various IT services to its clients here and abroad. “We are thankful to the management of HPPEMC for welcoming us into your cooperative family. Being part of HPPEMC will be a big help for my employees particularly the affordable HMO for family members and the HPP Life Plan, not to mention the many credit facilities that you have,” ITSM Philippines Chairman, Ernesto Cruz Jr., said.

We would like to thank the Cooperative Development Office of Taguig for this recognition. With their support and guidance, we were able to reach another milestone. This will only inspire cooperatives like us to work even harder as we try to improve the lives of each of our members.

One of our Board of Directors, Jay Calma, has left DXC Technology and although he will stay with HPPEMC as an Associate Member, he had to step down from the Board as mandated by the Bylaws (i.e. only Regular Members can hold elective positions). 

In its meeting dated October 10, 2019, the Board has elected Jeffrey Paradero as new member of the Board to replace Jay. Jeff has been with the Cooperative for 3 years and has been part of the Education Committee. He will serve for the unexpired term of Jay which is until March 2020 or until a successor is named. 

Please join us in congratulating Jeff in his new role and in thanking Jay for his many contributions to our cooperative.
