Enhancing the Regulation on Employment of Foreign Nationals and Transfer of Technology
An Act Enhancing the Regulation on Employment of Foreign Nationals and Transfer of Technology, Amending for the Purpose Articles 40, 41 and 42 of Presidential Decree No. 442, as Amended, Otherwise Known as the Labor Code of the Philippines and for Other Purposes
In plain language
The bill would require every foreign worker who is not a resident to get a work permit from DOLE, only after proving no qualified Filipino is available, and to run a training program that passes skills to Filipinos. The permit is tied to a specific job and employer, and any change needs DOLE approval; employers must report foreign workers, and violations carry fines and possible blacklist or deportation.
