Secretary Bienvenido E. Laguesma announced that the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) is bringing job fairs and Kadiwa ng Pangulo closer to Filipino workers and job seekers in celebration of the 122nd Labor Day on May 1.
With at least one job fair and Kadiwa per province, more Filipino workers and jobseekers, and even consumers will have access to employment opportunities and affordable products as DOLE conducts the said activities on May 1.
Job seekers are invited to visit any of the 94 job fair sites across the regions where 1,901 participating employers will offer 154,470 job vacancies as of date.
The top vacancies this year are production workers, customer service representatives, cashiers, baggers, sales clerks, laborers, carpenters, painters, microfinance officers, financial advisers, service crew, cooks, waiters, truck drivers, nurses, property consultants, and tutors.
Job seekers are encouraged to be ready with their application requirements, such as resume or curriculum vitae, diploma, transcript of records, and certificate of employment for those formerly employed.
Meanwhile, Filipino workers and consumers can access affordable products from 1,015 enterprises and 2,414 sellers in 92 Kadiwa ng Pangulo sites nationwide—the biggest conduct of Kadiwa to date.
This lineup of activities is intended to honor Filipino workers as the nation commemorates Labor Day with the theme, “Sa Bagong Pilipinas: Manggagawang Pilipino, Kabalikat at Kasama sa Pag-asenso.”
