One of the core functions of the Public Employment Service Office (<strong>PESO</strong>) is the<br />

Labor Market Information Services.<br />

<strong>PESO</strong> needs to maintain a database of employment and labor related matters in order to<br />

help the people and other stakeholders to make informed labor market choices.<br />

Major source of data is the National Skills Registry System accomplished by<br />

registered applicants. Other sources include reports from the different employment related<br />

activities conducted by the office and results of surveys and research done by other<br />

agencies.<br />

Cebu City <strong>PESO</strong> in 2014 has registered more than 5,000 applicants (Cebu City<br />

residents) in the SRS. Monthly LMI reports are submitted to DOLE together with<br />

corresponding supporting documents. The Local Chief Executive and significant others are<br />

also provided copies of the reports.<br />

During budget preparation and executive planning sessions, the labor market<br />

information are also used as inputs to establish trends and formulate appropriate actions<br />

and interventions, where necessary.<br />

For the year 2014, the profile of the 5,202 Cebu City residents registered applicants showed<br />

that female applicants outnumbered the male applicants comprising 54% of the total<br />

registrants. A slight difference to the situation in the national figure where there are more<br />

male than female in the workforce.
