The inauguration followed the formalization of collaboration between the NLRC and DOLE through the signing of a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) in Pagadian City.
NLRC is a quasi-judicial body tasked to promote and maintain industrial peace by resolving labor and management disputes in the fairest, quickest, least expensive, and most effective way possible. This includes cases involving both local and overseas workers through compulsory arbitration and alternate modes of dispute resolution.
One of the significant advantages of this development is the agency's ability to address complaints from employees who no longer maintain an employer-employee relationship and have experienced illegal dismissal.
