The Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) conferred various recognitions to Puerto Princesa City including the Best Public Employment Service Office during the 4th regional DOLE year-end performance assessment held on February 17 in the province of Batangas.

The DOLE has conferred to Puerto Princesa City PESO the Best PESO in Special Program for Employment for Students (SPES), Best PESO in TUPAD Implementation, Special Citation in Labor Market Information (LMI) and Recognition for Support to DOLE programs.

“Ang pagkilala sa implementasyon ng Special Program for the Employment of Students (SPES) ay patunay ng epektibong pagtulong ng lungsod sa mga mahihirap ngunit karapat-dapat na mag-aaral sa pamamagitan ng pagbibigay ng pansamantalang trabaho upang masuportahan ang kanilang pag-aaral. Samantala, kinilala rin ang mahusay na pagpapatupad ng Tulong Panghanapbuhay sa Ating Disadvantaged/Displaced Workers (TUPAD), lalo na sa mabilis na pagtugon sa pangangailangan ng mga displaced at disadvantaged workers at sa maayos at organisadong sistema ng pagpapasahod sa ilalim ng emergency employment,” the City Government through the City Information Office said.

Labor Market Information (LMI) on the other hand, is crucial for the PESO to facilitate efficient job matching, provide career guidance, and reduce skills mismatches between job seekers and employers. LMI connect workers and jobseekers with opportunities in emerging industries.

“Ginawaran din ng Special Citation in Labor Market Information (LMI) ang City PESO dahil sa sistematiko at napapanahong pagkalap, pagsusuri, at pagpapalaganap ng datos ukol sa labor market.

Sa pamamagitan nito, mas nagiging handa at well-informed ang mga naghahanap ng trabaho at mga employer hinggil sa kasalukuyang trends at job vacancies sa lungsod,” the CIO further said.

The City PESO is headed by PESO Manager Demetrio Lopez Jr.

PESO is a local government unit’s (LGUs) multi-service facility to bridge the gap between job seekers and employers. Its core functions include local and overseas job matching, career coaching, administering, labor market information (LMI) dissemination, and implementing specialized DOLE programs like SPES, TUPAD, livelihood assistance and job fair.
