The Technical Education Skills and Development Authority (TESDA) is looking into the alleged discrimination in the hiring of workers in this resort island.
This developed after the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) officially reported that their study showed that most of the workers being hired here are from the nearby provinces of Iloilo, Cebu, and Negros Occidental.
Because of this, Aklan residents are allegedly being displaced in the hiring process.
TESDA officials said that they provide nationwide accreditation and that the trainings being provided are the same in all provinces.
Aklan Vice Gov. Gabrielle Calizo-Quimpo said that TESDA officials were surprised by the results of the DOLE study and committed to take a look into the concern.
The Aklan provincial government is implementing a policy that Aklan residents should be prioritized in the hiring of employees in the province especially in this resort island.
"The TESDA wishes to understand why people coming from other provinces are being hired rather than the local residents," Quimpo added.
