UnionBank continues to reinforce its commitment to employee well-being through UCare Wellness 2026, an annual initiative led by the HR Benefits Team that brings health, lifestyle, and wellness services closer to its people. 

Held across multiple locations, UnionBank Square on April 17 and UnionBank Plaza from April 20 to 21, the three-day event created accessible spaces for UnionBankers to pause, recharge, and take proactive steps toward better health. 

At its core, UCare Wellness reflects the Bank’s belief that caring for employees goes beyond benefits. It is about enabling them to live healthier, more balanced lives. Through partnerships with trusted healthcare providers and wellness merchants, employees were given access to a range of services designed to support both physical and overall well-being.  

The event saw strong participation across all days, with 209 employees attending at UnionBank Square, followed by 200 and 152 employees at UnionBank Plaza on Days 2 and 3, respectively. This turnout highlights the growing importance UnionBankers place on wellness as part of their everyday work experience. 

UnionBank Shared Services Lead and HR leader, Gladys Ocampo, who attended the event, shared that “this year’s U-Care Wellness was a successful initiative made possible through the strong collaboration of the HR Benefits Team and our healthcare partners.” She added that promoting healthy living and overall well-being remains a priority, with UnionBank enabling teams to support a more engaged workforce. 

Beyond the numbers, the impact of UCare Wellness 2026 is reflected in the feedback from participants. The event earned an impressive 4.94 out of 5 overall rating, based on responses from 93 employees, underscoring the value and relevance of initiatives that prioritize employee health and well-being.  

UCare Wellness is part of UnionBank’s broader effort to create meaningful employee experiences, where individuals feel supported not just in their work, but in their personal well-being. As echoed in past wellness initiatives, the goal is to create moments that help employees connect, recharge, and feel empowered to perform at their best.  
 
As UnionBank continues to reimagine banking, initiatives like UCare Wellness ensure that its people remain at the center—healthy, engaged, and ready to thrive.
