Baban, joined the Philippine Red Cross โ€“ Davao de Oro Chapter in its Tree Planting Activity held on July 11, 2026, at Nabunturan Balik Kinaiyahan Foundation Inc., Brgy.

The activity, anchored on this year's National Disaster Resilience Month (NDRM) theme, "Naghahanda at Kumikilos Tungo sa Panatag na Bagong Pilipinas," highlighted the importance of environmental conservation as a key strategy in disaster risk reduction and climate resilience.

Guided by the vision of DOLE Secretary Francis N.

The Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) Davao de Oro Provincial Office joins the nationwide observance of National Disaster Resilience Month (NDRM) 2026 this July, supporting the government's efforts to strengthen disaster preparedness and resilience among individuals, workplaces, and communities.

Under the leadership of DOLE Davao de Oro Provincial Director Neil Allan R. Baban, and in line with the policy direction of DOLE Secretary Francis N. Tolentino, the Provincial Office expressed its support for initiatives that promote preparedness, coordinated action, and stronger community resilience against disasters and other hazards.

This year's NDRM carries the theme, โ€œNAGHAHANDA at KUMIKILOS Tungo sa PANATAG na BAGONG PILIPINAS,โ€ which highlights the importance of a whole-of-nation approach and shared commitment in building safer, adaptive, and disaster-resilient communities.

The annual observance is pursuant to Executive Order No. 29, series of 2017, which designates July of every year as National Disaster Resilience Month throughout the Philippines.

NDRM promotes disaster resilience across four thematic areas: disaster prevention and mitigation, disaster preparedness, disaster response, and disaster rehabilitation and recovery. It also advances the shift from disaster awareness to strengthening the ability of individuals, communities, organizations, and government institutions to adapt to and recover from the effects of hazards and disasters through effective risk management.

DOLE Davao de Oro likewise recognizes the importance of disaster resilience in protecting workers, preserving livelihoods, and ensuring the continuity of essential services during emergencies and calamities.

Through the NDRM observance, DOLE Davao de Oro reaffirms its commitment to working with government agencies, local government units, employers, workers, and other stakeholders in promoting preparedness and collective action toward safer and more resilient communities in the province.

The Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) gathered 37 micro-enterprise owners from Montevista, Mawab, and Nabunturan for a Technical Advisory Visit (TAV) Orientation on July 9, 2026, at the DOLE Davao de Oro Field Office Building in Cabidianan, Nabunturan. Through TAV, DOLE adopts a developmental and facilitative approach by educating and assisting micro-enterprises in understanding and complying with General Labor Standards (GLS) and Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) requirements. Provincial Director Neil Allan R. Baban underscored the importance of protecting workers' welfare and safety, while Senior Labor and Employment Officer Ryan D. Roldan discussed key labor standards, workers' benefits, hours of work, and workplace safety requirements.

The initiative supports the policy direction of DOLE Secretary Atty. Francis N. Tolentino to bring labor programs and services closer to the grassroots and strengthen DOLE's role as a development partner of employers and workers. Rather than focusing solely on enforcement, the TAV Program provides micro-entrepreneurs with practical guidance and technical assistance to help them voluntarily correct deficiencies, strengthen workplace safety, and progressively achieve compliance with labor lawsโ€”promoting responsible enterprise growth while safeguarding the rights and welfare of workers.

The Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) Davao de Oro Field Office, under the leadership of Provincial Director Neil Allan R. Baban, released TUPAD emergency employment wages to 256 small-scale banana growers and plantation workers on July 7, 2026, at the Municipal Gymnasium in Compostela, Davao de Oro. Implemented in partnership with the Local Government Unit of Compostela headed by Municipal Mayor Levi Ebdao, the activity provided a total of โ‚ฑ1,323,000.00 in wages to beneficiaries whose livelihoods have been adversely affected by the continuing spread of Fusarium Wilt (Panama Disease) in the municipality.

Facilitated by DOLE Livelihood Development Specialist Melvin L. Cocamas, each beneficiary received โ‚ฑ5,250.00 after completing ten (10) days of emergency employment under the TUPAD program. The beneficiaries carried out farm rehabilitation activities such as clearing farm areas, maintaining plantations, gardening, and other community-based works, enabling them to earn temporary income while helping restore the productivity of their farms.

The initiative underscores the Department's commitment to protecting workers and sustaining livelihoods during times of economic hardship. It also reflects the policy direction of DOLE Secretary Francis N. Tolentino to make government employment and livelihood services more responsive, accessible, and inclusive, particularly for vulnerable and displaced workers affected by industry disruptions and natural or agricultural crises. Through programs such as TUPAD, DOLE continues to provide immediate relief while promoting resilience, recovery, and opportunities for workers and their families to rebuild better and achieve sustainable livelihoods.

The Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) Davao de Oro Field Office joined the celebration of the 50th Founding Anniversary of the Parole and Probation Administration (PPA) XI โ€“ Davao de Oro Parole and Probation Office on July 7, 2026, at the Nabunturan National Comprehensive High School Gymnasium. In support of the government's reintegration program, DOLE awarded Certificates of Entitlement under the DOLE Integrated Livelihood Program (DILP) to five parolees and probationers, each receiving a โ‚ฑ50,000 livelihood grant for their chosen income-generating projects.

The awarding ceremony was led by Provincial Director Neil Allan R. Baban together with DILP Focal Person Eric T. Valiente and PPA XI Regional Director Benjamin C. Cutay Jr. The assistance will fund livelihood ventures such as Sound System Repair and Installation, WiFi Vendo Machine Installation, Dressmaking and Tailoring, Food and Catering Services, and Egg Wholesale and Retail Business, empowering the beneficiaries to rebuild their lives through sustainable sources of income.

The initiative highlights the strong partnership between DOLE and the Parole and Probation Administration in promoting second chances through meaningful livelihood opportunities. It also reflects the vision of DOLE Secretary Francis N. Tolentino of making employment and livelihood programs more accessible to vulnerable sectors. In his message, Provincial Director Baban encouraged the beneficiaries to embrace a brighter future through hard work, determination, and responsible choices, emphasizing that while the past cannot be changed, the future remains theirs to shape.
