BAYOG, Zamboanga del Sur, 04 Feb (PIA) – To efficiently
respond to the growing concerns over talent mismatch, the Department of Labor
and Employment (DOLE) Zamboanga del Sur Field Office conducted last week an
orientation on National Skill Registry System (NSRS) Program and turnover of Information
Technology (IT) equipments at Glupa Gulian Agro-Tourism Park, Barangay
Kahayagan of this town.
NSRS is a project initiated by DOLE, which is a
web-based system that shall capture the pool of available skills/talents at the
community level. It is a database containing the profiles of all persons
looking for job, which shall be maintained by the Public Employment Service
Office (PESO) of the cities and municipalities.
NSRS is a subsystem of the Phil-JobNet System, designed
to provide the “employers” or “employment service providers” with access to the
list of qualified applicants who fit the skills requirements of a specific
position.
The event was attended by DOLE officials led by Lourdes B. Amores, chief LEO of ZdSFO,
Lourdes E. Flosiza, senior LEO and Engr. Vicente B. Longcob, Administrative
Aide VI, Mayor Leonardo Babasa, Jr., Engr. Cerilo Carcueva, Administrative Officer
IV/PESO Manager together with the barangay chairmen and secretaries of the 28
barangays in the municipality.
Mayor Babasa expressed his thanks to the DOLE for bringing the program to Bayog. He said, “with this program, employment opportunities of our skilled workers will become higher, because employers will just refer to the NSRS in case their skills are needed.”
He also thanked the department for the IT equipments
which would be very useful for the PESO manager and for the Kabuhayan Kits.
Registration forms were distributed to the barangay
chairmen for their constituents who are interested to be registered in the
NSRS.
On the same occassion, Kabuhayan Kits were given to
Susan Jabiguero of Purok 9, Barangay Poblacion and Mary Grace Sonio and Marilou
Talabing, all of Purok 4 in Barangay Kahayagan. (FPG/BAG/CAL/PIA9)
