The JobStart Philippines Program is a flagship employment facilitation initiative of the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) that helps young Filipinos transition from school to work by providing life skills training, technical skills development, and internship opportunities with partner employers. Institutionalized under Republic Act No. 10869, the program enhances the employability of out-of-school and unemployed youth, enabling them to gain industry-relevant competencies, workplace experience, and better access to decent and sustainable employment opportunities.
As part of the program, the 60 beneficiaries successfully completed the 10-day Life Skills Training (LST), which focused on strengthening essential workplace competencies such as effective communication, teamwork, problem-solving, professionalism, work ethics, financial literacy, and career planning. On 21 July 2026, DOLE released a total of โฑ330,000 in training stipends to the participants, reaffirming the government's commitment to supporting young Filipinos as they prepare to enter the workforce.
