At least 449 DOLE employees received free medicines, laboratory tests, and wellness services during the two-day Medical Mission and Wellness Program held at the DOLE Central Office on December 4-5, 2025.
Participants also benefited from dental and optical checkups, mental health counseling, and on-site consultations to address stress, workload concerns, and overall well-being. Organized by the DOLE Organic Employees Association and the Bureau of Working Conditions as part of DOLE’s anniversary celebration, the initiative aimed to ensure accessible and essential health services for employees, enabling them to remain healthy, supported, and productive in serving the public.
“This activity aims to provide immediate health interventions, establish baseline health data, provide access to available health services of the government, and encourage long-term habits that support a healthy, productive workforce,” Undersecretary Warren M. Miclat said. “More importantly, this medical mission symbolizes our commitment to a holistic, people-centered DOLE – an institution that not only serves the Filipino workforce but also prioritizes the welfare of those who tirelessly serve within its walls,” he added.
