Included in that grab-bag of announcements are a list of activities that TanHoldings employees are encouraged to take part in.<\/p>\n<p>The choices are ample. Employees can join the company\u2019s soccer team or suit up for its basketball squads. If they like trading spikes and serves, volleyball is the perfect choice, while those who love hitting the shuttlecock can try badminton.<\/p>\n<p>There are also regular fun runs, such as TanHoldings\u2019 signature event, the JP Run, which honors the memory a former TanHoldings executive. The company\u2019s executives have also pioneered a walk\/run along Beach Road every week, while the gyms at its hotels are open for the use of employees for free. Seminars on professional and personal development\/growth are also conducted, providing employees valuable information and experience to enhance their skills.<\/p>\n<p>Another event that the company holds and is usually the highly anticipated is the \u201cLose Big, Win Big\u201d contest, a weight-loss competition that is both an internal contest and has a version for the bigger CNMI community. Testimonies of employees\u2019 life-changing experience through this competition are the highlights of the event.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese activities aim to encourage members of the TanHoldings family to stay active through sports and other events that promote a healthy lifestyle and professional growth. We take pride in having employees who are not only committed and dedicated to their work, but are also healthy\u2014body and mind\u2014to contribute to the company\u2019s success and their own progress,\u201d said TanHoldings chief executive officer Jerry Tan.<\/p>\n<p>By letting the community know about TanHoldings\u2019 initiatives, Tan hopes that other companies would create and implement their own health and wellness program.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur employees are also members of the CNMI community, so the more employees we encourage to stay active and be healthy, the lesser the number of people with health issues we will have in the Commonwealth,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When visiting one of TanHoldings\u2019 affiliates\u2014internally referred to as small business units\u2014you will notice announcements&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-308952","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-supplement"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/308952","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/10"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=308952"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/308952\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=308952"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=308952"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=308952"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
