What does BPBH mean in UNCLASSIFIED

Balik Pinay Balik Hanapbuhay (BPBH) is a program initiated by the Philippine government designed to aid Filipino women in finding gainful employment opportunities following job displacement caused by the pandemic. It also seeks to provide supplemental income sources for women.

Those interested in applying for BPBH should first contact their local public employment service office (PESO) where they will be asked to submit an application form, along with pertinent documents such as a valid ID, birth certificate, and proof of address. Upon being accepted into the program, beneficiaries will receive training and other forms of assistance depending on their particular needs.

This program was primarily created for Filipino women who were unemployed due to displacement caused by the pandemic or are looking for additional sources of income to support themselves and their families.

Depending on the individual's specific needs and qualifications, potential benefits under the BPBH include access to skills training or micro-enterprise development services; loans with low-interest rates; job placements; marketing promotions; among other forms of support and guidance towards self-sustainability.

Applicants must be Filipino citizens 18 years old and above with valid identification cards such as birth certificates or proofs of addresses issued within the Philippines. They should also have some form of existing education level including those opting not to finish high school but have acquired at least 4 years of basic education.
