*ZamPen’s Noche de Honor Caps Labor Day Month-long Celebration
Awarding of Outstanding Workers and Companies
Sat, Jun 04, 2011 (Source: DOLE IX)
Zamboanga City – The final salvo of the 2011 labor month celebration culminated in a fitting tribute to outstanding private sector employees and employers in Zamboanga Peninsula Region. This was held last May 31, 2011 at the Lantaka Hotel by the Sea, this city. The event, now on its second year, kicked off with a provincial search as early as February 2011 which gave a headstart to DOLE Field Offices to advocate, launch, convene selection and conduct their respective awarding ceremony.
Mr. Jose Suan, Vice-Chair representing Labor of the Regional Tripartite Industrial Peace Council (RTIPC), in his opening message, congratulated DOLE, its leadership, the Regional Coordinating Council (RCC) and intermediaries for putting together series of regional activities for a meaningful final salvo. “We hope good things will not end tonight, social justice and tripartism will continue to be sustained para makamit ang tuwid na daan tungo sa kaunlaran Para sa Lahat” he said.
Active Public Private Partnerships at work in all aspects of this laudable initiative, afforded the coming together of stakeholders by way of creative linkages and bonds as seen in the involvement of the Tripartite Industrial Peace Councils of Zamboanga City, Zamboanga Sibugay, Dipolog City and Pagadian City with all of DOLE family, intermediaries, LGU partners and social partners particularly the Rotary Club East of Zamboanga City, as one of the major sponsors of this event.
No less than Assistant Sec. Hon. Ma. Joji V. Aragon came to celebrate the twin victory of employers and employees of ZamPen. Her warm presence was felt even more when she delivered her keynote message.
“In looking for outstanding workers, we collectively make a statement to reflect on the importance of pursuing a culture of excellence at work. It is also to always provide value-added work and a good time to ponder on the essence of the dignity of work, which to a good extent means to do our best and be an exemplar in whatever job we do,” Asec. Aragon said.
“By honoring the best employer, we collectively take stock of what works in terms of effective business practices, what works in raising productivity and competitiveness; and what works in ensuring workers welfare-ingredients of a successfully-managed and sustainable business,” the Assistant Secretary added.
She also lauded ZamPen for showing that business and workforce objectives are best pursued if common and shared and that is about creating a balance between dynamic economy and productive workforce which ultimately bears on individual workers’ interest and well-being, thereby achieving decent work for all.
Assisting the Assistant Secretary in the awarding ceremony were our very own Regional Director Ponciano M. Ligutom, Mr. Irineo M. Quijano, President of Rotary Club Zamboanga City – East and the Chair of the Board of Judges, Ms. Gloria Cecilia L. Bernal. This year’s regional winners are:

Quijano of Lee Plaza Central, Dipolog City.
Lending prominence and prestige to the event was the participation of various performing groups in the program. The Unibersidad de Zamboanga Grand Chorale, Southern City Colleges Sinag Tala Performing Arts, and the Top Plaza Hotel Performers (“Talenyado Night” winner of ZaNorte’s labor day activity) who took days off from their work and traveled all the way from Dipolog City to entertain the audience.
The program was hosted by the powerhouse tandem of Ms. Jazmin O. Cinco, LIO, TSSD and Engr. George G. Ledesma, RTIPC Vice-Chair for Management and Industrial Group of Zamboanga Inc (IGZI) President. The well thought-out preparation and execution would not have been possible if not for the collective effort of all involved as punctuated in the closing remarks given by IMSD Chief Ms. Elsa B. Tan, Chair of the TWG Labor Month Celebration.
The Search is a local initiative of RD Ligutom and has been implemented in the regions he was previously assigned. “It was conceptualized and implemented as a way to deepen DOLE’s engagement with the community and to make its presence more meaningful and relevant by recognizing outstanding workers and companies, promote strong employee morale, boost efficiency, improve productivity, encourage social responsibility and accountability, maintain industrial peace, and elevate the competitive advantage of the country,” he explained.
