Gov't crafting post-Covid-19 recovery plan: Bello
The Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) is developing a post-COVID-19 recovery plan primarily focused on employment.
Labor Secretary Silvestre Bello III stated that the plan will be presented to the Inter-Agency Task Force (IATF) in due time.
A key objective of the plan is to ensure that workers do not lose their jobs amidst the economic challenges posed by the pandemic.
The DOLE's priority is to address employment issues, even above concerns regarding job security.
As of April 13, the DOLE has reported that over 1.4 million workers have been displaced due to the COVID-19 outbreak.
The majority of these displacements are attributed to temporary business closures, with the remainder affected by flexible work arrangements.
