WHAT IS PESO CSJDM?
Public Employment Service Office City of San Jose del Monte is the realization of our support to the K4 Program through the initiative of our City Mayor Angelito M. Sarmiento. The Primary functions of PESO were derived from priority programs for economic growth particularly "Kabuhayan" and "Karunungan".
It was in July 2004 when our office assumed these functions focused on Employment Assistance and Capability Building. We were able to extend these services to our constituents through the continued support from our City Government.
