According to POEA Administrator Hans Leo Candac, “the number of complainants in illegalrecruitmentcases has actually declined. But that does not prevent us from intensifying further our campaign against illegalrecruitment.”

He also added that applicants for abroad should be vigilant about the activities of certain agencies.

“Those planning towork abroadshould deal only with licensed jobrecruitment agencies. But they should also be warned that there are cases whererecruitmentfirms are licensed but their employer-contacts are not registered with us. There are also cases of registered employers but their job orders are not registered with the POEA,” Cacdac said.
