The Bulacan Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Inc. (BCCI), in partnership with the Provincial Government of Bulacan and in coordination with SSS, PhilHealth, Pag-IBIG Fund, and the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE), successfully conducted the multi-agency virtual seminar and forum entitled โStaying Ahead 2026: Labor, Benefits, and Compliance Updates for Employersโ on May 26, 2026 via Zoom.
The seminar gathered business owners, HR practitioners, finance and payroll officers, compliance officers, and representatives from various establishments across Bulacan to receive the latest updates on labor laws, mandatory benefits, employer compliance requirements, contribution policies, and government programs affecting employers and employees.
The activity aimed to strengthen employer awareness and compliance with labor and social protection policies while promoting stronger collaboration between the private sector and government agencies.
Resource speakers from SSS, PhilHealth, Pag-IBIG Fund, and DOLE discussed recent policy updates, contribution guidelines, digital services, labor advisories, and compliance requirements relevant to employers. Open forum sessions were also conducted to provide participants with the opportunity to raise questions and clarify concerns directly with agency representatives.
Representatives from various Pag-IBIG branches, including Baliuag and Meycauayan, also participated in the open forum to assist in addressing inquiries specific to employers and members under their respective jurisdictions.
Through initiatives such as this, BCCI continues its commitment to empowering the business community through timely information dissemination, capacity-building activities, and strengthened public-private sector collaboration toward responsible and compliant business operations.
The Chamber extends its sincerest gratitude to all partner agencies, resource speakers, participating branch representatives, and attendees for their valuable time, support, and active participation which contributed to the success of this activity. BCCI likewise thanks the Provincial Government of Bulacan for its continued partnership in promoting programs that benefit the business sector and workforce in the province.
Together, let us continue working toward a more informed, compliant, and progressive business community.
