The Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) issued a warning to all overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) who intends to work in Macau or is being recruited to work in the said Chinese territory using tourist visas saying that the Macau government has recently implemented a law that prioritizes the hiring of local workers over foreign workers.
DOLE Secretary Marianito Roque said that is no longer easy for foreign workers to come and find employment in Macau, unlike in the past when they could apply and easily fill vacancies as walk-in applicants in this part of China. This is because the Macau government recently passed the Law for the Employment of Non-residential Workers, also known as the Law on Imported Labor, to safeguard the employment of local workers and restrict the hiring of migrant workers in Macau. The new law took effect on April 26, 2010.
A report from the Philippine Overseas Labor Office (POLO) – Macau states the draft administrative regulations complementing the new law have already been submitted to the Macau government’s Executive Council.
In this light, POLO-Macau has consulted the Macau Labor Affairs Bureau (DSAL) for the conduct of a symposium aimed at orienting the OFWs in Macau on the new Law on Imported Labor.
Sec. Roque said the workers should always verify first with the Philippine Overseas Employment Administration (POEA) the legality of jobs in Macau to avoid being victimized by unscrupulous individuals or agencies.
