In anticipation of a surge in overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) traveling to the Philippines during Ramadan, the Migrant Workers Office (MWO) in Dubai and Northern Emirates will conduct a Special Service Day on Feb. 8, Saturday, to streamline essential processes for departing workers.
In an advisory, the agency announced that the event will run from 8:00 AM to 12:00 PM at MWO-Dubai, designed to assist OFWs with the necessary documentation for their vacation, allowing them to access these services on a weekend.
