DMW out to make overseas employment 'by choice'

DESPITE the increasing demand for overseas Filipino workers , the Department of Migrant Workers on Saturday, April 13, 2024, assured the public that the administration is working to make job-seeking abroad a matter of choice instead of a necessity. In a statement, the DMW said it is not solely focused on finding new labor markets for OFWs as it is similarly interested in creating more local job opportunities.

The department said efforts include partnering with technical institutions, both government and private, to equip Filipinos with in-demand skills that match labor market needs. It said it also provides support to OFWs, who wish to return home and start their own businesses or re-enter the local workforce.However, the DMW said that the agency also has to do its mandate of ensuring a safe, fair, and transparent labor mobility for Filipinos.
