Overseas recruitment agencies who fail to follow the rules and
regulations in hiring overseas workers face the risk of having their
licenses canceled. However, even with cancelled licenses, some
recruitment agencies continue to hire applicants for overseas
deployment.
Such is the case with Northwest Placement Inc. and Reajent Manpower
Services Inc. To make sure that these agencies will not be able to
continue their illegal operations, the Philippine Overseas Employment
Administration (POEA) chief, Hans Leo J. Cacdac and Vice-President
Jejomar Binay, which is the head of the Presidential Task Force on
Anti-Illegal Recruitment (PTFAIR), closed the offices of Northwest
Placement Inc. and Reajent Manpower Services Inc.
Cacdac said, “This enforcement effort of the POEA and the Office of
the Vice-President underscores the importance of punishing recruitment
violators and upholding the rule of law. And we will not rest.”
The order for immediate closure was issued by POEA after discovering
that Northwest Placement Inc. continue to hire housekeepers for the
United States of America even after its license was cancelled on April
25, 2012 because of the excessive fees it charged to applicants.
The office of Reajent Manpower Services Inc. was also closed by the
POEA because they continue to accept applications for the position of
fruit pickers for Australia that was found out to be non-existent.
Reajent was under preventive suspension since February 28, 2012.
