                    [Title] => DOLE fears shortage of mining industry workers
                    [Summary] => Where are the Filipino miners?


The Philippines may have to "import" foreign miners due to lack of qualified people to work in multi-billion peso investments to explore the country’s mining potentials, the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) said yesterday.

A 30-page DOLE "think paper" said the country’s diminishing supply of "core professions"–geodetic and mining engineers, metallurgists and geologists, may become insufficient to fill in the growing demand for professional mining workers.
