NEDA pushes for bigger role for employers in creating jobs

THE official economic planning body said creating jobs remains a big challenge in the country as the labor force continues to grow faster than the number of jobs created, making it imperative for government and employers to collaborate in tackling the unemployment problem.

On Friday, the National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA) appealed to employers across various businesses to take a more active role in efforts to generate high-quality jobs that will provide adequate incomes for Filipinos.
