BAGUIO CITY -- Rep. Marquez Go was
urged to facilitate implementation of the Government Internship Program (GIP)
in the city.
Councilor Joel Alangsab, in a resolution, said the GIP is a component of Kabataan 2000 Project under executive order 139, s-1993 which aimed at providing opportunities for young workers to serve the general public through projects and services of government agencies and offices at both local and national levels.
Regional offices of the Dept. of Labor and Employment facilitate and supervise implementation of the GIP and determine distribution of interns in government agencies.
The Dept. of Labor and Employment- Cordillera Administrative Region, through the office of Benguet Caretaker Eric Yap, was able to provide temporary jobs to fresh graduates in La Trinidad, Benguet in 2021 under the GIP.
Alangsab said the GIP improved the beneficiaries’ skills and attitude and equipped them firsthand by engaging them in a real work environment in a government setting which helped them become employable while receiving corresponding compensations in accordance with the prevailing minimum wage in the region.
He said services imparted by the GIP beneficiaries generate efficiency on government transactions and processes, thus increasing the organizational productivity and improving overall work performance of the city government.
The councilor said Baguio City has a high number of fresh graduates and indigent young workers who may benefit from the GIP.
He said the City Government of Baguio had been an active partner of DOLE-CAR in implementing significant programs in the city.
