INSPIRING STORIES EVA PANCCA ACCOUNTING COORDINATOR ¡Congratulations, champion! summit! You did it!

You've

It was 11:15 am on Sunday, November 12, 2023, and these words echoed in my ears as my eyes filled with tears, and my heart burst with emotion at 5,825 meters above sea level on the summit of the Majestic Misti Volcano.

I achieved this experience as a participant in the Misti Sky Race 2023 sports event on the 26-kilometer route starting from the Aguada Blanca reservoir and ending in the Pampas del Misti.

The ascent was very challenging due to the altitude, weather changes, and the difficulty of the terrain. I constantly reminded myself that every step, no matter how small, brought me closer to the summit and that giving up was not an option.

My mental and physical strength were put to the test as I recalled the reasons that led me to register, the training, and the advice of my teammates from Team Penta Run, with whom I share a passion for trail running.

I take away from this experience that we all have summits in front of our eyes to conquer, and we would be surprised at what we are capable of achieving.

Thank you very much.

Mandatory Life Insurance The AEWP has hired a life insurance policy (Mandatory Life Insurance) to protect each collaborator as from their first day of work.

This insurance grants compensations to beneficiaries who must be registered by the collaborator through an “Affidavit of Beneficiaries”. Such a format must be completed, notarised (at any notary in Lima) and handed in to the Human Resources Department.

In the event of natural or accidental death of the collaborator, or if he or she became totally and permanently disabled, the insurance company shall compensate the beneficiaries as follows:

Amounts

Natural death

Accidental death

Total permanent disability

16 wages

32 wages

32 wages

Remember that: Presenting the “Affidavit of beneficiaries” is an obligation of the collaborator.
