OVER 5,000 jobs in the tourism industry will be offered as the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) holds the second special simultaneous job fairs today, Thursday, and tomorrow in three regions in the country.
In a social media post, the DOLE-Bureau of Local Employment (BLE) said the “2nd Trabaho Turismo Asenso Philippine Tourism Job Fairs” will simultaneously be held from March 30 to 31 in Pampanga (Central Luzon), Iloilo City (Western Visayas), and Cagayan de Oro City (Northern Mindanao).
“The estimated number of vacancies solicited is at 5,686,” said BLE Director Patrick Patriwirawan.
The BLE said jobs to be offered are those in the hotel and accommodation services, retail, manpower services, manufacturing, and business process outsourcing.
“This aims to sustain the continuous recovery efforts in the tourism sector, especially in light of the reopening of business establishments,” the BLE said.
The job fairs are set to be held in Robinson’s Starmills in San Fernando City, Pampanga; Robinson’s Iloilo in Iloilo City; and Limketkai Mall in Cagayan De Oro City.
The first simultaneous tourism job fairs were held in Pasay City, Cebu City, and Davao City in September last year.
