The LGU San Fabian continues to support the inclusion and empowerme of PWDs in full compliance with RA 10524, An Act Expanding the Positions Reserved for Persons with Disability, which strengthens RA 7277 or the Magna Carta for PWDs.
Three (3) selected PWD beneficiaries, the 4th Batch, will undergo a 90-days On-the-Job Training (OJT) program at the Persons with Disability Affairs Office (PDAO), PWD Desk, and Kabuhayan Workshop of PWDs. The trainees include two (2) deaf individuals and one (1) former OFW who is a cancer survivor.
The program aims to develop their skills, improve productivity, and provide equal opportunities for employment.
Previous batches of trainees have already been hired by the LGU under Job Order positions, showing the success of the program in helping PWDs gain employment.
Each trainee will receive an allowance during the training period to support their daily needs.
A photo opportunity was held with Ma’am Queenie Rose Cabanlig- MSWDO, Hon. Coun. Rolando Pedralvez, and Hon. Mayor Marlyn Agbayani and Jane Jane A. ILustre , the Sign Language Interpreter, whose presence ensured clear communication and proper assistance for the deaf trainees. This highlighting the LGU’s support for inclusive and accessible programs.
Through this initiative, the LGU San Fabian continues to create opportunities and promote equal rights for PWDs.
