Solution

There are many other reasons why many Filipinos want or need to work abroad. Some of

these reasons are personal others are financial and there are also reasons that are only

temporary. Working abroad is very rewarding, there are also a number of disadvantages

in working in the foreign lands such as the loneliness of being away from your family

discrimination from overseas employers, and the high cost of living abroad.

Another possibility in improving the labor situation would be creating employment not

only in the urban areas but also in the rural areas. This is a commendable solution since it

offers equal opportunities to all workers from various places in the country to have a job

regardless whether they are graduates or undergraduates.

Each company should give a fair salary and treatment on its workers so they will feel

motivated on their job this solution guarantee their workers loyalty and stop them from

working abroad for bigger salary and fair treatment.

This should be done by many companies in our country, being bias or having a

favoritism on their employee or applicant affect their confident in the workplace which is

a big part of working effectively on something. Working on our own country should help

them shape and build their self instead of being discriminated here.

Most of Filipino family believes that if you’re the first child you should take the

responsibility of being successful in the family or you should take the role of being bread

winner which is we should stop because it’s only pushing them to strive harder in life

just to be successful and it’s giving them an idea to go abroad especially when they see a
friends or relatives that working overseas and successful in life , it only make them feel

insecure on what work they have.

The best way to solve this issue is to create a job for many unemployed Filipino citizens

because our population is getting bigger and bigger while our economy is still remain

unstable and we’re lacking on companies who’s in need of workers. Our economy is

unbalance right now, we have a high percent of unemployment while we’re having a

shortage on companies who’s still accepting applicant.

Raising the minimum wage can also help our Filipino workers to easily strive from

poverty that one of the cause why they’re working abroad. Cutting the poverty on the

country might sound so ambitious but still this could be the best solution to stop Filipino

applicants from going overseas.


Recommendation

Although these issues are difficult to resolve perhaps a change in the government to

make a possible solution such as laws that dictate elimination of discrimination on senior

citizen to have chance to work. The government must offer a high salary and give reward

to Filipino workers who deserve it for doing excellent in work.

Most companies here in the Philippines seek for an applicant that has an experience

already which is a unfair mostly for fresh graduates it’s forcing them to go overseas just

to find a job. Public and Privates companies should give everyone a chance and stop

underestimating their skills and should consider their dedication on the job instead.

Government should enforce total ban on contractualization, It’s one of the main reason

why a lot of Filipino chooses to go abroad. Short term contract with a low salary is

simply inequitable for the laborers in our country.

Corruption needs to be stop. It still the prevalent problem of the Philippines making most of

Filipino suffer from our unstable economic condition and stops many companies to give a higher

salary for the laborers, making most Filipinos seek job overseas for higher salary so they can cope

up on rapid increasing prices or inflation happening in Philippines. If government make corruption

stop it’s going to be a big help for our economy and if our country’s economy became stable many

Filipinos doesn’t need to go overseas just to find a work that give them a higher salary.

Higher salary for Filipino workers, it’s bold to assume that our country can easily give the workers a

higher salary because our country isn’t that rich and we are facing unstable economic condition but
the thing is that’s the main reason why Filipinos are going abroad from the start so if every workers

can receive a higher salary then they don’t need to go abroad.
