+The labor and employment provincial chief further stated that the fund assistance is in pursuance to the objectives and goals of the Department’s livelihood program aimed at providing fund resources to small workers for them to be able to engage in socio economic ventures to develop their entrepreneurial capabilities and skills.
-The RDC-RPOC endorsement will also be forwarded to CHEDRO 2, Region 2 congressmen, and the SUC residents.
+“ This will also provide them a chance to expand their projects into a more viable economic activity that will serve not only as a stable source of income but also to generate employment which is in line with the objective of the program to uplift the workers’ economic status,” Tan furthered.
