SAN FERNANDO CITY, La Union — The Department of Labor and Employment in Region 1 had partnered with the Philippine National Police to bring the government emergency employment program to geographically-isolated and disadvantaged areas in the region.
TUPAD, which is the DOLE’s flagship program, is a community-based package of assistance that provides emergency employment for displaced workers, underemployed and seasonal workers, for a minimum period of 10 days, but not exceeding 30 days, depending on the nature of work. In the Ilocos region, GIDAs are usually located in the upland areas that are hard to reach. Likewise, these communities are also challenged by threats of local communist armed conflict.
