KFC Philippines continues to champion inclusive employment as its Senior Crew Program expands to more than 200 KFC stores nationwide, creating more opportunities for qualified senior citizens to stay active, contribute their skills, and remain part of the workforce.
Launched in 2022, the KFC Senior Crew Program provides qualified senior citizens with the opportunity to join KFC in roles suited to their capabilities. Applicants undergo KFC’s appropriate assessment process to ensure they meet the requirements of the role, including their ability to safely perform the work.
From its initial rollout in select branches, the program has steadily grown across the country, with more than 200 stores now participating. This milestone reflects KFC’s commitment to fostering an inclusive workplace where different generations can contribute, learn from one another, and be valued for the experience they bring.
“Through our Senior Crew Program, we want to create meaningful opportunities for qualified Filipino seniors who are willing and able to continue contributing in the workplace. At the same time, it is important that every Senior Crew member is matched with a role they can perform confidently and safely,” said Jojo Marcelo, KFC General Manager.
Senior Crew members bring warmth, dedication, and valuable life experience to KFC stores, enriching interactions with both customers and fellow team members. For many, the opportunity also provides a way to stay connected, productive, and engaged in their communities.
As KFC continues to grow across the Philippines, the brand remains committed to creating meaningful opportunities for people and communities—proving that experience continues to have a place at the table.
“KFC Philippines is part of the global KFC brand, one of the world’s leading quick-service restaurant chains, known for its freshly prepared, hand-breaded chicken made with the Colonel’s Original Recipe of 11 herbs and spices. In the Philippines, KFC operates nationwide, serving customers through dine-in, take-out, drive-thru, and delivery channels.”
