CEBU, Philippines – At least 72 managers of Public Employment Service Office (PESO) renewed commitment to support the employment program of Department of Labor and Employment-7.

“Our PESO Managers in Central Visayas are active, supportive, intelligent and empowered. We owe it all to their local chief executives for they trust our thrusts to help improve the lives of their constituents. We salute to the mayors and governors for their unwavering assistance,” he said.
The PESO managers’ support for DOLE Job Facilitation Plan for 2011 was established during their annual planning workshop at Alta Cebu Village Garden Resort in Cordova town from February 3 to 4, 2011.
