“We are happy to partner with the Muntinlupa City government to cater to the needs of senior citizens and PWDs who aspire to work and remain active contributors to society. Through our Inclusive Employment Program, we hope to forge more partnerships with local government units and open more employment opportunities for elderly and differently-abled persons across NCR and the country.” ~Ruth Angeles, Jollibee Group Vice President and Head, Global Organization, Leadership and Culture and Head for Philippines HR
The Jollibee Group has recently entered into a memorandum of agreement with the municipal government of Muntinlupa, headed by Mayor Ruffy Biazon. This collaboration aims to offer temporary employment opportunities to eligible senior citizens and persons with disabilities (PWDs). As part of this initiative, 32 qualified individuals from these groups will have the chance to work at specific branches of Jollibee, Greenwich, and Burger King located in Muntinlupa City.
The city’s Public Employment Service Office (PESO) will assist the Jollibee Group in the hiring process. Muntinlupa PESO will screen applicants before endorsing qualified candidates to the company. Once selected, successful candidates will be tasked with customer relations staff duties such as ushering customers and helping with table services.
“More than just signing a mere document, we have opened up opportunities for people who are in need. What we have actually done is break through some barriers for our fellow Muntinlupeños particularly to PWDs and seniors.” ~Hon. Ruffy Biazon, Muntinlupa City Mayor
Alongside Muntinlupa, Jollibee Group also partnered with the LGUs of Manila and Antipolo this year to implement its inclusive employment program.
Interested applicants can get more information on this employment program from the Muntinlupa Persons with Disability Affairs Office and the Office of Senior Citizen’s Affairs.
