Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) Secretary Marianito Roque assures that there is enough job opportunities for local workers, as well as for displaced OFWs.
Roque says that President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo’s emergency employment program alone can generate more than 200,000 jobs.
Under this program, all government agencies are ordered to set aside 11.5 percent of their savings so that they can hire temporary workers and cancel the effects of the global crisis.
The aforementioned program will start in April after the completion of its guidelines. (PNA)
