The Parañaque City government announced this weekend that a total of 350 students in the city were accepted and given the opportunity to be part of the city’s yearly Special Program for the Employment of Students (SPES). | |||
Mayor Florencio Bernabe said the SPES allows students with ages 17 to 25 years to have an “on- the-job train¬ing” in the city government offices to make their summer productive and enriching experience. | |||
Bernabe said that apart from get¬ting a “hands-on” in the facets of gov¬ernment service, SPES beneficiaries also get remuneration. | |||
He said that SPES stipend this year is P420/day and 60% of their al¬lowance will be provided by the city government while the 40% will come from the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE). The mayor said that the program is coordinated by the Parañaque Livelihood Resource Management Office in cooper¬ation with the City Secretariat and the Office of Councilor Benjo Bernabe. | |||
“This program not only allows students to gain work experience; it also affords means for students to earn income which they may use for their enrolment in college or for the purchase of textbooks. More impor¬tantly, we believe that the program helps instill work values like diligence and dedication to work. Being a great help to students especially those from poor families,” Benjo says. | |||
