Labor and Employment Secretary Rosalinda Dimapilis-Baldoz yesterday announced that the DOLE has over 150 job fairs in store for new graduates, the youth, and other job seekers in Metro Manila and other regions this April, May, and up to June 2014. The DOLE has conducted 107 job fairs in March.<\/p>\n

The labor and employment chief said that of this over 150 job fairs, easily the biggest and most anticipated is the Labor Day Job Fair that the DOLE will conduct on 1 May 2014 at the SMX Convention Center in Pasay City under the auspices of the DOLE National Capital Region and the Bureau of Local Employment.<\/p>\n

“Job fairs are the DOLE’s strategy to facilitate job matching and placement of workers. The DOLE works to make it easy and fast for jobseekers to find jobs that fits their qualifications, interests, and career inclinations,” said Baldoz, adding that job fairs help both workers and employers–workers in finding jobs and employers in searching for workers that fit their requirements.<\/p>\n

Job fairs are mandated under R.A. 8759, otherwise known as the Public Employment Service Office (PESO) Act of 1999, which provides that job fairs shall be conducted \u201cperiodically all over the country to bring together in one venue job seekers and employers for immediate matching.\u201d<\/p>\n
