THE Department of Labor and Employment will be holding a three-day job and livelihood fair in 19 cities nationwide starting on Independence Day, expecting some 1,000 employers to participate in the event, including some from the overseas recruitment industry.

Labor and Employment Secretary Marianito Roque said those interested in joining the Kalayaan 2009 Mega Job and Livelihood Fair should register this early through the PhilJobnet system as this will give them the opportunity to be prioritized by firms and agencies that would participate in the job fair.

He said registering with the system at http://phil-job.net would enable the pre-screening of applicants and hasten the selection process.

Roque said that over 170,000 job vacancies are up for filling in.

He said the first day of the job fair on June 12 would feature government agencies offering 50,000 vacancies especially for professionals and other jobseekers with civil service eligibility.

The second day of the job fair on June 13 would feature private local companies offering some 70,000 jobs. The following day, June 14, would feature recruitment agencies offering some 50,000 sea-based and land-based overseas jobs.

Roque also said that government agencies nationwide would at the same time award about 30,000 emergency jobs to displaced and other unemployed workers under the emergency employment program of during Wednesday’s hearing, which was considered one of the fastest and unopposed confirmation hearings that the CA has conducted. –Joel Zurbano,Manila Standard Today
