"partial Lang Muna" , Philippines Sets ‘partial’ Deployment Ban To Kuwait

Manila Labor and Employment Secretary Silvestre Bello III on Thursday said it would declare partial employment ban to Kuwait following the death of overseas Filipino worker Jeanelyn Villavende.

We are considering a total deployment ban in Kuwait. We are considering that but in the meantime while we are deciding whether or not we will impose a total deployment ban, I will issue a directive today to set the partial deployment ban which means we will not be deploying new workers there..

Bello said the ban would only be partial as it would not cover returning domestic helpers and first-time skilled workers. It would only prohibit new domestic helpers.

We will wait for the result of the investigation dun sa pagkamatay ni Jeanelyn,” Bello said.
Panelo: Full deployment ban of workers, cutting of ties with Kuwait to depend on the recommendation of Labor Secretary Bello following the death of another OFW in Kuwait.
