Davao needs 5,000 more IT sector workers
Davao ICT Council president Samuel Matunog said Davao’s IT sector will need an additional 5,000 workers in addition to the existing 45,000 BPO workers in the city. The anticipated demand for more IT workers is on the back of projections of a growing number of new locators and expansion of existing BPOs operating in the city. Matunog revealed that the city’s IT sector continues to receive inquiries from investors. Aside from IT, these investors are also looking for workers with a background in hotel and restaurant management and tourism. Over the next three years, Davao City aims to reach its target of 70,000 BPO workers.
