MANILA - Some 5 to 10 million workers could lose their jobs due to the coronavirus pandemic and resulting lockdowns, Philippine Labor Secretary Silvestre Bello III said Thursday.
"Yung 2.6 million, that is the actual number of workers either displaced because of temporary closure or because of the flexible work arrangement. Our estimate is that we may go as high as 5 million," Bello said. So far, the Department of Labor and Employment has provided 335,000 emergency employment to affected informal workers, and cash aid to over 649,000 formal workers before funds ran short, Bello said.
Bello said half a million OFWs have already applied for the one-time assistance of $200 or P10,000 each.
