If AI is changing the way we work, what happens to the people behind the work?
That was one of the conversations at the Metro Manila Business Conference (MMBC) 2026, where PALSCON National President Ms. Maricar S. Suarez joined the panel discussion on AI & the Future of Work, under the theme “Navigating Energy, Trade, and Security for Resilient Business and Stronger ASEAN.”
For Ma’am Maricar, the conversation goes beyond what technology can do. As AI continues to reshape workplaces and industries, human skills, values, judgment, and the ability to work with people remain just as important.
She also brought the PALSCON perspective to the discussion—highlighting the importance of responsible service contracting, workforce development, and preparing both businesses and workers for a workplace that continues to evolve.
The event also became an opportunity for PALSCON to connect with fellow business and industry leaders, exchange perspectives, and share the Association’s upcoming 16th PALSCON National Conference and 1st Philippine HR Expo.
Joining Ma’am Maricar in representing PALSCON were External Vice President Mr. Froilan Florendo; Corporate Secretary Ms. Abegayle Deloraya; P.R.O. Mr. Lorenzo Consulta; Member of the Board Mr. Lester Javier; PALSCON South Luzon Chapter Vice President Mr. Regin Suarez; Past Presidents Mr. Armando Gutierrez Jr. and Mr. Butch Guerrero III; and PALSCON Members Mr. Jay-Ar D. Sta. Ana and Ms. Monette Florendo.
As conversations around AI, business, and the future of work continue to grow, PALSCON remains part of the conversation—bringing the voice of the service contracting industry and keeping people at the center of the future of work.
Because the future may be powered by technology, but it will always be shaped by people. ❤️
