JEPPCA: Japan Employment Providers of the Philippines & Consultants’ Association Inc.
JEPPCA was created during the first quarter of 2015 and become officially registered with the Securities & Exchange Commission (SEC) and other Philippine government entities on
14 October 2015.
This was a result of some overseas employment industry stalwarts’ desire to form a professional association which will help ensure that all issues relating to employment of skilled personnel, professionals and other workers to a very promising job destination as Japan, are properly addressed for the betterment of all stakeholders.
JEPPCA prides itself of having reputable leaders and members who have unselfishly contributed to upgrading the overseas employment industry’s ethical standards and professionalism. While various manpower industry groups in the Philippines are either country-specific or purpose-driven, JEPPCA assumes both roles, aiming to be known as a professional promoter of employment opportunities for Filipinos of various skills (engineers, other professionals, health care workers, technical interns and all other occupations or job roles which Filipino workers are legally-authorized to perform).
Shortly after JEPPCA was formed, it organized a business conference in Manila with other Philippine manpower groups and a professional entity in Japan. Attended by several Japanese company CEOs, company executives and decision makers, the November 2015 conference promoted not only Japan employment opportunities for Filipinos, but also a camaraderie amongst representatives of Japanese employment companies and Philippine licensed agencies. It also provided an opportunity for Japanese companies, Filipino manpower providers, government regulators such as the Philippine Overseas Employment
Administration (POEA) and the Embassy of Japan in Manila, to learn from one another.
From then, JEPPCA made as its social responsibility and advocacy, to partner with other Philippine manpower groups and the POEA, in providing overseas application procedures and pre-employment guide to potential job seekers. It has a ready guide too, for employers who are wanting to bring in Filipino workers to Japan and other overseas destination.
It also conducts capacity-building programs for its members and their employees, to keep them abreast with applicable laws, migration requirements and other updates related to providing short-term solution to Japan’s continuously-expanding labour shortage concerns.
JEPPCA recognizes that while its members work to properly represent the globally- recognized Filipino workforce and the foreign Employers, the need to protect the interest of all parties involved, also remains a primordial duty of every member-agency.
