ILS Functions

ILS performs the following functions, directed toward the ultimate end-view of contributing to the betterment of the lives of the Filipino workingman:
Undertake research and studies in all areas of labor and manpower policy and administration;
Review the rationale of existing legislation and regulations, and analyze the costs involved in the implementation of such legislation against the benefits to be derived;
Study and develop innovative and indigenous approaches toward the promotion of harmonious and productive labor-management relations, and the improvement of workers’ welfare services;
Develop and undertake research programs and projects in collaboration with other national agencies to enhance DOLE’s capability to participate in national decision- and policy-making;
Enter into agreement with international or bilateral agencies to carry out the foregoing functions;
Expand the scope of research interests into other countries and regions;
Publish research studies for dissemination to government, as well as other concerned parties; and
Perform other functions as may be provided by law or assigned by the DOLE Secretary.
This is what the ILS consistently strives for – something deeper, something more permanent, something larger than the sum of all its parts, something that matters most to the future.
