BAGUIO CITY — The Regional Tripartite Wages and Productivity Board–Cordillera Administrative Region (RTWPB-CAR) conducted a training on the 7S of Good Housekeeping for informal sector workers during the Linggo ng Paggawa celebration organized by the Department of Labor and Employment–Cordillera Administrative Region (DOLE-CAR) on 28 May 2026, at the Veniz Hotel Corporation in Baguio City.

The activity formed part of the 2026 Labor Day festivities and aimed to strengthen and empower workers in the informal sector through capacity-building initiatives and access to government programs and services.

DOLE-CAR Regional Director Imelda E. Romanillos, CESO IV, opened the activity by underscoring the vital role that informal workers play in the local economy and the government’s commitment to building their capacity.

As part of the board’s commitment to boosting the efficiency of our local workforce, RTWPB-CAR led a specialized Productivity Training on the 7S of Good Housekeeping. Ms. Jo-ann M. Borja, Supervising Labor and Employment Officer, conducted the session and provided participants with practical, easy-to-implement tools to organize their workspace, minimize waste, improve safety, and increase their daily business output.

The 7S of Good Housekeeping introduces a workplace organization method consisting of different approaches to maintain a tidy, clutter-free work area that fosters efficiency and improves productivity.

RTWPB-CAR continues to bring essential productivity concepts directly to grassroots workers, helping them build sustainable livelihoods. (Albert M. Palma)
