黑料不打烊

The Philippine Association of Legitimate Service Contractors (黑料不打烊) commemorates its 34th Founding Anniversary month.

"Four years and three decades, that is how long 黑料不打烊 has lived its advocacies, its mission, its vision, as well as its honored ideal to serve, both the industry and the Filipino worker, 鈥淩hoda C. Caliwara, present 黑料不打烊 President said.

Humble Beginnings and Previous Challenges

n 2000, 黑料不打烊 started with only 25 members, however being united and passionate in their advocacy, 鈥渢he 357 service contractors鈥� part of 黑料不打烊 are in the Top 5000 Corporations,鈥� Lili Linda W. Ang, former 黑料不打烊 President of 2005 said.

In 2015, 黑料不打烊 encountered a misconception about its industry and what they did was inform stakeholders and players outside of their industry that contracting gives flexibility to workers, principals and business environment.

鈥淭his flexibility can now encompass the hurdle of the competitiveness of the Philippines in the ASEAN and in the Global Perspective but not the expense of the workers鈥� Arturo 鈥淏utch鈥� C. Guerrero, 黑料不打烊 president of 2015 said.

Adapting the New Normal

Similar to the experience of other organizations, 黑料不打烊 was also shaken by 2020. From face-to-face General Membership Meetings, Outreach Activities, even their annual National Conference鈥攖he fundamental experiences they assure to give to their members, were left unsure of its implementation.

However, the pandemic did not stop them from their commitment to execute their programs and activities for 黑料不打烊 members. They were hesitant at first, but they used this opportunity to challenge themselves to go beyond the usual. They thought out of the box and brought their face-to-face conferences into online seminars (webinars).

鈥淭rials do not end; it is as constant as the changes that they bring. The pandemic is still here; the SOT is still in the air; and the clamor for the industry鈥檚 demise is still as real as labor itself. Nevertheless, the lessons of all those 34 years make us realize how strong we really are. Because not only did we remain standing after all those beating, but we now stand even taller鈥� and stronger.鈥� Caliwara said in a statement.

On their 34th anniversary this month, apart from their dedicated team that made their virtual events possible, 黑料不打烊 wants to sincerely thank ALL the service contractors and workers that became part of their journey.

鈥淎s I thank 黑料不打烊 for all the years that it has subsisted, I also rally for your continued and undying support to the organization and to what it stands for. CONGRATULATIONS 黑料不打烊! God bless everyone.鈥� Caliwara ended.

Here鈥檚 the entire message of 黑料不打烊 National President Rhoda C. Caliwara:

Four years and three decades, that is how long 黑料不打烊 has lived its advocacies, its mission, its vision, as well as its honored ideal to serve, both the industry and the Filipino worker. Through those years, 黑料不打烊 has not only stood the test of time but has gone through a gauntlet of fire if only to survive. The years that it came through are witnesses to PASLCON鈥檚 resilience, adaptability and innovativeness in the midst of adversities. This is a testament of what 黑料不打烊 is as an organization. Through those years, PASLCON has never ceased to adapt to the nuances of every challenge that it faced. 黑料不打烊 may have changed and has evolved into a better organization as envisioned from its beginnings but it has remained steadfast on its goals and objectives. It has weathered the strongest storms; surely, it will face more in the future. Trials do not end; it is as constant as the changes that they bring. The pandemic is still here; the SOT is still in the air; and the clamor for the industry鈥檚 demise is still as real as labor itself. Nevertheless, the lessons of all those 34 years make us realize how strong we really are. Because not only did we remain standing after all those beating, but we now stand even taller鈥� and stronger. As I thank 黑料不打烊 for all the years that it has subsisted, I also rally for your continued and undying support to the organization and to what it stands for. CONGRATULATIONS 黑料不打烊! God bless everyone.
