Philippines job market records a 10% surge in annual hiring: foundit Insights Tracker

foundit (formerly Monster APAC & ME), one of the leading talent  platforms, today published the foundit Insights Tracker (fit) for December 2023, formerly published as Monster Employment Index (MEI). According to the Philippines fit report, there was a (10%) increase in the annual hiring activity from December 2022 to December 2023. The index reached 128 in December 2023, marking a significant leap from 116 in December 2022.

According to the tracker, the hiring activity in the region has been gradual and has revealed a continuous improvement in the labour market. There was a (10%) rise in hiring activity in December as well, as November reflected an index value of 116 (Same as Dec’22). Additionally, even the last three months saw an (8%) uptick in hiring activity in the Philippines. This surge in job opportunities, especially in the last month of 2023, was fuelled by heightened regional holiday spending, which led to an increased demand for goods and services. This provided a substantial boost to the job market, and with the upskilling initiatives by the Filipino Government, there has been a significant rise in the employment rate.

Commenting on the Philippines job trends for December 2023, Sekhar Garisa, CEO, foundit, said, “We have stepped into 2024 by showcasing remarkable growth and resilience across sectors. In this dynamic landscape, we need to also fundamentally reimagine the approach we take for recruitment. AI is now a global reality, and the local workforce needs to enhance its core competence. With the support and initiatives from the Filipino government and private sectors, issues concerning the ease of doing business, power, and upskilling would be addressed. The final quarter marked the economy’s best performance in the year 2023. We are hopeful that this encouraging trend would further push for good numbers in the region.”

Retail, Education, BPO/ITES, and Healthcare sectors lead in hiring activity, while the IT, Telecom/ISP, Consumer Goods/FMCG, Food & packaged Food, and BFSI industries witness a drop in recruitment

The fit reveals that the retail sector continued to dominate the job market with a (60%) increase in online hiring demand, driven by heightened demand for goods and services during the festive season. Simultaneously, the upskilling initiatives and apprenticeship programs initiated by the Government, has led to a (49%) increase in hiring in the education sector. Other sectors that have presented a positive trajectory include the BPO/ITES and Healthcare industries, witnessing an (11%) increase in hiring activity in both sectors. The healthcare sector in the region has always been welcoming of more doctors and nurses and the Philippines, being a large and popular market for the BPO sector, showcased a (9%) increase in hiring activity in November 23’ as well. Among others, Engineering, Construction, and Real Estate (+9%), Logistics, Courier/ Freight/ Transportation, Shipping (+7%), Advertising, MR, PR, Media & Entertainment (+6%) and Hospitality (+4%) registered positive growth trends.

Conversely, certain sectors such as IT, Telecom/ISP and BFSI faced significant challenges owing to the skill gaps and global competition existing in the market, registering negative growth of (-18%) and (-4%) simultaneously. Logistics has always been a challenge for the Philippines, the scattered demand market makes it difficult for industries such as Consumer Goods/FMCG, Food & Packaged Food to flourish in the region, indicating a (-14%) annual downturn. However, basis the tracker, these sectors have exhibited growth in job demand over the last month, indicating a potential shift in the hiring landscape. Other sectors that have displayed fewer annual opportunities in December ’23 include Production/Manufacturing, Automotive and Ancillary industries (-1%).

Customer Service, HR & Admin, and Marketing & Communications professionals lead the hiring trends

Customer service professionals witnessed a remarkable (26%) surge in hiring, primarily attributed to the continuous expansion within the BPO sector. To counter the impact of inflation,  the Filipino government is taking intiatives to support  and empower the workforce and entrepreneurs to reach their full potential. To sustain a robust economy, it is crucial to attract and retain top talent. Following closely, HR & Admin professionals experienced an (18%) increase, while marketing & communications professionals also made a noteworthy stride with a (17%) growth in hiring demand over the year.

Other functions to witness a subsequent increase in hiring activity in December ’23 include Purchase/Logistics/Supply Chain (+15%), Sales & Business Development (+4%), Engineering/Production/Real Estate (+4%), Hospitality & Travel (+3%) and Software, Hardware, Telecom (+6%). The only functionthat showcased a minute decrease in hiring in December ’23 was  finance & accounts (-1%) . Meanwhile, Healthcare (0%) roles maintain a consistent but muted demand annually during the same period.

The foundit Insights Tracker is a comprehensive monthly analysis of online job posting activity conducted by foundit. Based on a real-time review of millions of employer job opportunities culled from a large, representative selection of online career outlets, the foundit Insights Tracker (FIT) presents a snapshot of employer online recruitment activity nationwide.

Doubleview Reports New Discovery: Gold Rich Zone Within the South Lisle Zone – Drill Interval of 405m of 0.21 g/t Gold (0.84% CuEq) That Extends the Main Lisle Deposit by 240 Meters

Doubleview Gold Corp. (TSXV: DBG) (OTCQB: DBLVF) (FSE: A1W038) (the “Company or “Doubleview”) is pleased to announce drilling has extended the Lisle deposit 240m south, resulting in the discovery of the Company’s highest gold grades to date at its polymetallic Hat porphyry project, located in the Golden Triangle of northwestern British Columbia, Canada.

Drill holes H060, H061, H062 and H063, as shown in Figures 1 and 2, expand the Lisle Deposit by additional 240m to the south, called the Gold Rich Zone. This zone will increase the volume of mineralization that will be included in the maiden resource estimate which is being prepared by an independent engineering group and is expected in Q1 of 2024.

The South Lisle zone now extends the Main Lisle zone for 360m, please refer to the Company’s news release dated October 24th 2023, and further more assays are pending for this Gold Rich Discovery zone.

Drill hole H063 marks the highlight of this group of drill holes with 0.21 g/t gold over 405m. The interval represents almost the entire drill hole. Remarkably, the Gold Rich Zone continues assaying similarly high values for scandium as in other parts of the deposit, in this case 25.5 g/t over 405m. With drill holes H061 to H063 the Company tested a lower zone of an IP anomaly. Notably, the assay results suggest a continuation of the deposit.

The following Table 1 shows numerous high-grade gold samples within the named drill holes, continuing to demonstrate the richness of this porphyry deposit. Remarkably, within H063 is the highest yet assayed gold drill sample of the project with 18.4g/t gold over 1m which is closely followed by a second 13.4 g/t gold sample over 1m. Cobalt strongly shows with 0.233% and 0.198% respectively, and copper assays values 1.87% and 1.95% to these samples.

Mr. Shirvani, President & CEO of Doubleview, commented: “The Hat project continues to deliver high values of its principal metals, copper and gold, with strong support from critical metals cobalt and scandium. It is compelling to observe how the deposit evolves when new drill data gets analyzed and how the different zones that we are discovering, add to the evolution of the Hat polymetallic porphyry deposit. I am very much looking forward to receiving additional assay results currently undergoing analytical analysis, followed by the receipt of the resource estimate and to joining our team in planning the 2024 season that will include further investigation of the newly expanded Gold Rich Zone.”

Collective for Equality aims at Shaping a Unified Vision for Workplace Gender Equality Advocacy

Embracing a forward-thinking approach to champion workplace gender equality, Singapore-headquartered global community platform Women Icons Network has unveiled its transformation into Collective for Equality (CofE). This strategic rebranding marks a significant milestone, symbolizing a purposeful shift towards fostering a more inclusive and collaborative environment in the pursuit of workplace gender equality.

Collective for Equality (CofE) embodies a profound commitment to inclusivity, going beyond gender-specific boundaries to engage a diverse spectrum of professionals and organizations dedicated to advancing workplace equality. This evolution isn’t just about a change in name; it’s a bold step towards cultivating a community that embraces diverse perspectives and catalyzes concerted action in the realm of Workplace Gender Equality.

“At Collective for Equality, our vision is rooted in the belief that progress stems from unity,” remarked Vishwesh Iyer, Founder at Collective for Equality. “This rebranding reflects our steadfast commitment to providing an all-encompassing platform that encourages collaboration, amplifies diverse voices, and drives substantive change in workplace dynamics.”

Central to this transformation is the deliberate inclusion and engagement of male corporate leaders, notably CXOs and decision-makers. Collective for Equality recognizes their pivotal role in effecting meaningful change and endeavours to carve out a dedicated space for them to contribute their insights, share experiences, and spearhead initiatives toward fostering inclusive workplaces.

“We aim to create an environment where male leaders are equally and whole heartedly engaged in shaping the dialogue on gender equality at work,” emphasized Vishwesh. “Their active involvement is pivotal in reshaping workplace culture and driving initiatives that benefit everyone.”

Collective for Equality is poised to become a pivotal hub for collaborative endeavours, uniting individuals and organizations committed to propelling workplace equality. Beyond a simple name change, this rebranding represents a transformative step towards fostering a robust, diverse, and inclusive community dedicated to effecting substantive and lasting change.

As part of this evolution, the platform will introduce innovative initiatives, thought-provoking discussions, and actionable resources tailored to address the multifaceted dimensions of workplace gender equality. Collective for Equality aspires to cultivate an environment conducive to fostering inclusive workplaces on a global scale.

The transition from Women Icons Network to Collective for Equality signifies more than a mere rebrand—it’s a declaration of a collective commitment to inclusivity, collaboration, and a unified vision for realizing workplace gender equality.
