Outstanding Public Employment Service Offices (PESOs) in Region 1 were recognized during the Regional Best PESO Awards 2025, one of the highlights of the Lead and Empower: DOLE RO1 Livelihood and Employment Awards 2026, held on September 24, 2026, at Stella Maris, Cabugao, Ilocos Sur.
The awards honor PESOs that have demonstrated excellence in providing employment facilitation services and implementing responsive labor market programs for jobseekers, workers, and employers in their respective communities.
As local employment service providers, PESOs play an important role in connecting jobseekers with employment opportunities, assisting employers in their recruitment needs, and supporting the implementation of various employment programs and initiatives.
Their efforts contribute to bringing employment services closer to communities and helping jobseekers access opportunities that match their skills and qualifications.
DOLE RO1 Regional Director Honorina Dian-Baga recognized the dedication of PESOs in bringing employment services closer to jobseekers and employers across the region. She emphasized the importance of DOLE-LGU partnership in making employment services more accessible and responsive to the needs of local communities.
