Aboitiz Construction’s inaugural Safety, Health, Environment, and Security (SHES) Month received a Silver Anvil Award in the Sustainability Communications category at the 60th Anvil Awards, held on 28 January 2025, at The Manila Hotel.

Launched in June 2024, SHES Month introduced 16 activities aimed at promoting employee well-being, environmental sustainability, and community engagement. The initiative featured wellness challenges, tree-planting drives, a mental health webinar, and awareness campaigns on safety and sustainability.

Aligned with United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs) 3 (Good Health and Well-Being) and 13 (Climate Action), the program fostered a culture of health and environmental responsibility. Its impact extended beyond the company, including the turnover of a Materials Recovery Facility to a community in Malvar, Batangas.

The initiative was recognized for its measurable impact, alignment with sustainability goals, and effectiveness in promoting safety and environmental awareness.

“Winning this award highlights the value we place on embedding sustainability, along with safety, health, environment, and security, into every aspect of our work. We are proud to see SHES Month make an impact not only within our company but also in the lives of our partner communities," said Karmine Andrea Ching, Sr. AVP for Business Transformation of Aboitiz Construction.

Now an annual event held every June in line with Philippine Environment Month, SHES Month will continue to raise awareness on safety, health, and sustainability while delivering positive outcomes for employees and communities.

This latest recognition adds to Aboitiz Construction’s growing presence in corporate communications as it celebrates its 50th anniversary. The company has previously received Anvil and Quill Awards for its brand relaunch initiatives in 2023 and 2024.
