Based on the news report of TV Patrol on April 21, 2016. The guidelines for “Pilot Testing” are currently being fixed. Initially, there will be 50 to 100 domestic helpers that will be sent to Kanagawa Prefecture in Japan for the said Pilot Testing. According to POEA Administrator Sir Hans Cacdac, he sees this as another opportunity for Filipino workers to wok overseas.

The Philippine Overseas Employment Agency has reminded OFWs to apply only to accredited manpower agencies and verify through the POEA’s official website if the latter has available job orders for their offered job openings.

Probably, because aside from know-how in household chores, they are also able to speak English, and show genuine care to their employer’s loved ones.
