About the DMW (formerly the POLO)

---

Whatever the form of employment, hiring a Filipino national requires going through the Philippine government's Department of Migrant Workers.
*For the details, please see the acceptance process.

Unlike other countries, overseas work by Filipino nationals is licensed by the state, so the bar to bringing someone in is higher, and that is a burden. In return, the number who go missing is dramatically lower than for other countries — under 0.6% of the total each year — and, for Specified Skilled Workers, measures against changing employers keep risk and trouble low.

MWO

The DMW's field offices, the Migrant Workers Offices, are in Tokyo and Osaka. Supervising organizations and receiving companies generally complete the procedures for accepting a Filipino worker there.

Accredited sending organizations

Because of that system of oversight, sending organizations in the Philippines are licensed by the state as well. There are operators who hide their status and collect fees from workers through unscrupulous brokered arrangements; that always leads to trouble, so choosing a properly licensed sending organization matters.

We are an MWO-accredited sending organization.
