MANILA, PHILIPPINES — The Anti-Red Tape Authority (ARTA) collaborated with the Chamber of Cosmetics Industry of the Philippines (CCIP) for a special activity called “Serbisyo Para Kay Juana” in line with the 2024 National Women’s Month Celebration (NWMC).
Held at the ARTA head office in Quezon City, the event provided a free skincare and make-up seminar to ARTA female employees. This initiative aimed to inspire and empower women to embrace opportunities and reach their full potential, fostering a more diverse and inclusive ARTA workplace.
