00:00The Chamber approved a bill that will give opportunity to senior citizens to get a job.

00:05What can senior citizens say about this?

00:08Let's find out in Street Hear It with Bam Alegre.

00:12Bam?

00:17Good morning!

00:18It's just yesterday that I'm getting old.

00:19For active senior citizens,

00:21there's a bill that will give them access to a job.

00:25Here on Street Hear It.

00:30Senior citizen Maribel Oronos worked hard to put this in the San Juan Market.

00:35She's been selling this since 1986.

00:37She took good care of it because she knows that it will be hard for her to get a job

00:41when she gets old.

00:43It's a big thing.

00:44First of all,

00:46when it comes to the Philippines,

00:48senior citizens are the best.

00:50For senior citizens who can still get a job,

00:53this House Bill 10985 is a big help.

00:56It's now approved in the third and final reading in the House of Representatives.

01:00This will give opportunity to senior citizens to get a job in the government and private sector.

01:07The private sector will also be incentivized to get a 25% deduction

01:11in their gross income tax if a senior citizen is employed.

01:15Under the Panokalam Batas,

01:16it is mandated for DOLE and TESDA to conduct training programs for senior citizens.

01:21This is a good opportunity for Roberto Uria, a tricycle driver,

01:25who will be a senior citizen in his next term.

01:28But he should also be mindful of his health,

01:30especially when his body is aching.

01:33I can't do it anymore.

01:34Even if I'm a senior citizen, I can't work anymore.

01:39I'm already 59.

01:41I can't work anymore.

01:43I'm dizzy.

01:45Can I still work properly?

01:47Before the bill is passed,

01:49there should be a version in the Senate,

01:50under the Panokalam Batas,

01:52or it will be adopted by the Senate.

01:54It will pass through the Bicameral Conference Committee

01:56and the President's signature.

02:04Yes, one of the benefits of this

02:06is the non-collection of fees or payments

02:08to the senior citizens who are applying for job requirements.

02:12This is Trit Hirit from San Juan,

02:13Baba Legre for GMA Integrated News.
