OFW Deployment Ban in Saudi Arabia

The Philippines Department of Labor and Employment may expand the deployment ban to Saudi Arabia due to the common practice of Saudi Employers to Illegal Transfer or "Trade" of Filipino Domestic Workers to other employers that resulted to unreported cases of maltreatments and abuses.

The Philippine Labor Secretary said that trading and switching of foreign household workers known as "Kafala" is a common practice in Saudi Arabia where in the Kingdom about more than 1.2 Million Filipinos are working. He said that the Philippine would impose the same deployment restrictions it applied to Kuwait if Saudi Arabia does not strengthen its protection of Filipino workers.

Under the "Kafala" or Sponsorship system, the Saudi Citizen employer or sponsor has the complete control over the mobility of the migrant worker. A foreign worker for instance, cannot quit work or transfer jobs without first obtaining the consent of his employer, which practically places the worker at the mercy of his employer.

Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is the biggest employer of Filipino workers, who make up the fourth largest group of foreigners and who are the second largest source of remittances to the Philippines.

As part of the Philippine Government move to improve protection for Filipino Workers, the Department of Labor of the Philippines sent a team to the Middle East to assess conditions and provide immediate assistance and recommend actions to deal with the situation.

As per the Department of Labor Secretary of the Philippines, the report from the assistance team sent in Middle East will be a reliable basis for the amendment or enhancement of existing bilateral labor agreements with Arab countries to provide better protection for Filipino Workers. He said, if there is an existing bilateral labor agreement but there are still rampant cases of maltreatment, then maybe we need to amend the agreement.

The Philippine President's minimum demand is only to deploy  countries where Filipino Workers are properly and effectively protected.

Job Fair in the Middle East for the Filipino Engineers

It's time to put a stop to brain drain. It's a good news for Filipino's working in the Middle East especially for Engineers and Professionals who faces difficulties in the present crisis and who has issues in their salary and sponsorship. If there is a chance to go back to Philippines and get a job with a fair salary then this is the time to decide.

Secretary Ernesto Pernia of the National Economic and Development Authority said the government wants more engineers back home and rendering their services for the local infrastructure boom under the Duterte administration.

Pernia said the Labor department will be staging a job fair in the Middle East to the Filipino Engineers and experts to return to the Philippines, with the promise of a competitive pay.

"We will make sure that the salary differential between what they are getting in overseas workplaces and here will be minimal or maybe even more than whatever they are getting," Pernia said in a speech on Thursday, Feb. 22.

We hope this will encourage Filipino Professionals to return home.
