The Labor Market Monitor is a quarterly publication of the Bureau of Local Employment (BLE) that tracks the changes in the supply and demand for professionals,
skilled and unskilled workers as viewed from administrative data generated by DOLE agencies involved in skills training and certification, professional regulation,
employment facilitation, and overseas employment. This is a collaborative undertaking of the DOLE family of agencies (TESDA, POEA, OWWA, PRC, MTC, ILAB,
BLES and BLE), to integrate in one publication key performance indicators on labor market supply and demand. It also captures critical and emerging occupations for the purpose of labor market signaling and as basis for timely and meaningful policy and program interventions.

tracts/projects leading to higher volume of production; (b) expansion of business and new product lines;
(c) increase in government spending; and (d) seasonal uptick in demand during summer and the enrollment and harvest seasons. Also contributing to business improved sentiment were the prevailing favorable macroeconomic conditions, such as lower interest rates and manageable inflation, as well as, steady
growth of overseas Filipinos remittances that contribute to a healthy external payments position. The senti-
ment of business in the Philippines mirrored the improved business outlook globally, particularly in the US,
Germany, Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Korea,
and Singapore.
