As part of the preparations for the anticipated opening of SM City La Union in 2025, the Provincial Government of La Union, in partnership with ACE Hardware, conducted a Local Recruitment Activity on June 19, 2025, at the Public Employment Service Office (PESO) - La Union.
The main objective of the activity was to screen and hire qualified job seekers to fill vacancies in anticipation of ACE Hardware’s operations in the new mall. It highlights the expanding employment opportunities generated by the upcoming mall launch and reflects the ongoing collaboration between PESO-La Union and SM City La Union.
PESO-La Union supervises scheduled recruitment activities like this, providing a convenient and accessible venue for job seekers while ensuring that employers can efficiently source qualified applicants. It streamlines the hiring process but also strengthens the province’s employment facilitation services, reduces job mismatches, and promotes local economic development by directly connecting employers to the local labor force.
In its commitment to strengthen local employment in the province, the PGLU continues to conduct recruitment activities alongside employability enhancement trainings and seminars for young adults and professionals. Through this, more LUcal job seekers are expected to land career opportunities within the province to increase La Union’s overall employment rate.
