MANILA— The "success" of recovery and keeping the quality of jobs to pre-pandemic levels depends on how the government will address the new COVID-19 Delta variant, the International Labor Organization said Friday.

The government is expected to fine-tune quarantine restrictions due to the new variant, which is known to be highly contagious. Kagohashi said the project would focus on firms' occupational safety to support reopening and recovery.
