ISKO: HEALTH PERMIT ONLY FOR NEW APPLICANTS

MANILA MAYOR Francisco “Isko Moreno” Domagoso clarified on Wednesday, March 11, that those working for educational institutions no longer need to secure an annual health permit, a requirement that has been labeled by UST labor groups as “unnecessary,” “questionable” and “costly.”

Only new applicants and workers in specific sectors, such as food businesses, are required to obtain the document from the local government, according to Domagoso.

“They don’t have to worry, those from UST. Your city government literally addressed that problem in the past,” Domagoso said in an interview sent to The Flame.
