Partnership with JobStreet

The CSC job fair or more commonly referred to as the “2020 Government Online Career Fair” (or GOCF), will be in collaboration with JobStreet.com, the country’s leading job search site.

Through an announcement on its website, the CSC directed all government agencies, local government units (LGUs), state universities and colleges (SUCs) and government-owned and controlled corporations (GOCCs) for the submission of their job listings.

They said that they must include the “critical or hard to fill positions requiring immediate hiring” on or before Aug. 14. As such, interested agencies nationwide may register until 14 August 2020.

To give more time for the CSC to advertise and publish the list of vacant positions nationwide, the participating agencies shall submit on or before 14 August 2020 the list of their vacant positions to the Examination Recruitment & Placement Office (ERPO).”

Contrary to circulating news reports, the reported figure at 600,000 refers to job order and contract of service workers currently employed by the government and not the number of vacancies.

Adult Joblessness in the Philippines

Adult joblessness in the Philippines arose to a record-high 45.5% in July amid the COVID-19 pandemic represented by an SWS survey.

Jobless adults can be classified as the people who voluntarily left their jobs; those who are seeking jobs for the first time; or those who lost their jobs due to economic circumstances beyond their control such as the current health crisis.

The latest poll indicated that about 86.4% Labor Force Participation Rate or the proportion of adults in the labor force, estimated to be worth 60 million adults which is more than from the previous 68.7% Labor Force Participation Rate recorded in December 2019, estimated to be 45.5 million adults.

Results of the same survey found that one out of every five (5) adult Filipinos; or half of the 42% with no job or livelihood said they lost their job during the coronavirus pandemic. The remaining 21% of the unemployed said they lost their jobs before the coronavirus struck the country.

CSC’s celebration of the Civil Service Month would also include a virtual press conference, fora, and online photography contest, among other activities, according to Lizada.

What do you think of the CSC job fair? Is the job fair timely during this period amidst the health crisis?
