A new digital campaign is highlighting the need for mental health support in the workplace, featuring personal stories of Filipino workers coping with anxiety, cancer, and other challenges.
The “We See You” campaign, launched by employment platform Jobstreet by SEEK, showcases accounts of resilience to encourage open conversations about well-being at work.
The effort comes as wellness and work-life balance continue to rank among the most sought-after benefits for Filipino workers, according to the company’s Future of Recruitment report.
The first episodes feature Grace Schuke, a former school principal diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder, and Manjelique Garcia, a cancer survivor who was also diagnosed with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. Both share their experiences of seeking help and finding purpose while dealing with health struggles.
Jobstreet by SEEK said more stories will follow to redefine the role of employment platforms in addressing workforce challenges. It is also urging companies to adopt stronger mental health initiatives such as counseling services, employee assistance programs, wellness days, and access to mental health apps.
“Mental health is no longer optional, it’s critical to the future of work,” said Joey Yusingco, head of marketing for Jobstreet by SEEK in the Philippines. “This campaign is more than raising awareness; it is our bold yet gentle reminder that no worker should ever feel alone, unheard, or invisible.”
Jobstreet by SEEK, a subsidiary of Australia-listed SEEK, operates across six Asian markets, including the Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Hong Kong, and Thailand. The company said its platforms attract more than 500 million visits annually in Asia.
The first two “We See You” episodes are available on Facebook, with updates posted on the company’s social media accounts.
