The National Reintegration Center for OFWs (NRCO) is the bureau under the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) launched to help Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs) and their families build an entrepreneurial mindset and make for a productive return to the Philippines.
Acting as the Philippine government’s Reintegration Manager, the NRCO is designed to address the multifaceted needs of the OFWs by extending a helping hand that provides the mechanism to reintegrate distressed and displaced OFWs back into society. It helps OFWs re-learn the culture of savings and business and investment, while at the same time, acting as a promotion house to help them find local employment upon their return.
National Reintegration Center for OFWs (NRCO) Offices in the Philippines
As DOLE’s newest service bureau, the NRCO is the main office in-charge of the reintegration needs of all displaced OFWs and OFWs in distressing situations, including how to put their abilities and potential to attain goals and aspirations towards national development. Having said that, we made it a point to make their services more accessible to those who need them by rounding up a complete list of the NRCO offices along with information on where to find and how to reach them, when needed.
