Illegal Recruiters are Using Ahalia Hospital's Name

Please be careful with illegal recruiters. We received a private message from JR regarding a scam. 

JR is a physical therapist in one of the hospitals in Saudi Arabia. He's looking for better opportunity in UAE by signing up and applying for jobs in outsourcing websites. Last August 21, 2016, he received an Appointment Letter from Al Neyadi Travel and Tours for a job in Ahalia Hospital. The salary being offered was high and very appealing. He was asked to pay $4,200 through Western Union or Moneygram for the processing fees, documentations, courier and family visa. JR asked his friend in Abu Dhabi to verify the appointment letter with Ahalia Hostipal but it turned out that everything was a fraud. JR wanted to make sure that he was no missing a big opportunity so he called Ahalia Hospital himself. The HR personnel of the hospital also confirmed that the contract was fake and that the HR did not sent him any email.

JR wanted to share this experience to warn everybody specially our fellow Filipinos of this scam. Thank you JR!

Here is the email that was sent to JR:

No More OEC But You Need to Register

President Duterte heard the OFW’s sentiments! He has started taking action not only against drugs but also in making the life of OFW’s easier. The President has already given an order to POEA to restructure the processes in deploying OFW’s.

In accordance with POE Governing Board Resolution No. 12, Series of 2016, starting on September 15, 2016, although this will still be on experimental basis, qualified OFW’s will no longer be required to secure overseas employment certificate.

You are qualified and exempted if:
  • You are returning to the same employer and job site and should be listed in the OFW POEA database
  •  Hired through the POEA’s Government Placement Branch

The New Procedure:

Before going for vacation, you need to register at the Balik-Manggagawa Online Processing System http://bmonline.ph/ and provide your personal and employment details to check if you are qualified and exempted from getting an OEC. However, if you are not exempted from getting OEC during the time of your registration, you will have to set an appointment with the POEA office in the embassy.

If you are exempted in getting OEC, your updated profile will be forwarded to the Bureau of Immigration. This will serve as their basis for your clearance during your exit at the airport without fees.

However, if you proceed to the airport without registering in the Balik-Manggagawa Online Processing System you will be referred by the Bureau of Immigration to the POEA’s Labor Assistance Counter for evaluation, to determine if you will be cleared for departure or will be subject to complete travel documents and of course to pay required fees. 

For further details, here is the resolution: POE Governing Board Resolution No. 12, Series of 2016
