ACCRALAW joined the International Employment Lawyer (IEL) 4th Asia-Pacific Employment Summit in Singapore, held at Marina One in July 2026. Partner Erwin Jay V. Filio participated as a panelist in the session entitled “Bribes, Borders, and Business: Making the Most of the Anti-Corruption Push.” Mr. Filio is a certified Safety Officer and serves as the Firm’s Partner-in-Charge of Occupational Health & Safety, as well as the Co-Monitor for Practice Development of the Firm’s Labor and Employment Department (LED).
During the session, Mr. Filio shared his extensive expertise and discussed with his co-panelists the intersection of employment law, corporate governance, and regional anti-corruption enforcement. The discussion highlighted country-specific regulatory frameworks, best practices in internal investigations, and actionable strategies for building robust workforce compliance policies. Also in attendance at the summit was Partner Joy Anne C. Leong-Pambid, the LED Co-Monitor for Internal Affairs, who represented ACCRALAW as a featured panelist at the previous year’s IEL summit in Singapore.
The annual IEL summit brings together top-tier private practice lawyers, senior in-house counsel, and HR leaders to tackle the most critical challenges shaping the future of work across the Asia-Pacific region.
