DOLE takes first step to end ‘endo’The Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) has taken the first step in its campaign to end the practice of contractualization, popularly referred to as “endo.”Department Order No. But he warned registered labor contractors they could still lose their license if they are found violating government regulations. He said DOLE will not only check on legitimate contractors for compliance, but go after fly-by-night third-party service providers as well. Only the 5,000 to 6,000 contractors and subcontractors already registered with DOLE will now be allowed to operate. DOLE hopes to reduce contractualization cases by half before the end of the year.
