(NAR) VOL. III NO. 3 / JULY - SEPTEMBER 1992

[ POEA MEMORANDUM CIRCULAR NO. 67, July 15, 1992 ]

EXECUTION OF THE AFFIDAVIT OF RESPONSIBILITY AND THE ACTION ON THE APPLICATION FOR ACCREDITATION PENDING THE CONCILIATION PROCEEDING BETWEEN THE PARTIES



Pursuant to Book III, Rule I, Section 6 of the Rules and Regulations Governing Overseas Employment, as Amended, the transferee agency shall comply with the requirement for accreditation and shall assume full and complete responsibility to all contractual obligations of the principals to its workers originally recruited and processed by the former agency.

The transferee agency that is applying for accreditation is therefore reminded to comply with the above stated requirement and directed to submit an Affidavit of Responsibility as proof of the agency's willingness to assume responsibility in accordance with the rule. An agency that refuses to execute an Affidavit of Responsibility shall be denied accreditation.

Moreover, in accordance with Section 7 of the same Rule, the conciliation being conducted regarding obligations or money claims arising out of business relations between contracting partners or between agencies and principals will not prevent the Administration from acting on the request for accreditation if public interest so requires and the applicant meets all the requirements for accreditation. If no compromise or amicable settlement is reached in the conciliation proceeding, the parties are free to ventilate their claims to the proper forum.

For strict compliance.

Adopted: 15 July 1992
