DOLE Albay Provincial Director Leah Dy said that with the increasing unemployment rate and business establishment closure, the pressing issue on job losses gave birth to virtual job fair.

This is a continuing activity, and we seek the support of establishments that have vacancies to join us and work together to provide our people opportunities as we try to overcome the crisis we are experiencing now,” Dy said.
