History

[edit]

American colonial period

[edit]

Beginning as a bureau in 1908, the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) was founded on December 8, 1933, by virtue of Act No. 4121 of thePhilippine Legislature.[5] During theGreat Depression, the labor department experienced challenges, particularly peasant violence throughoutCentral Luzon. The first labor secretary,Ramon Torres, proved to be unpopular among sugar workers due to him being a sugarhacendero himself. PresidentManuel L. Quezon then replaced Torres withJose Avelino, who was a staunch anti-communist. Ineffective to handle the continued violence, Avelino was replaced withLeon Guinto as its third labor secretary. Unlike Avelino, Guinto suggested social reforms to the president, albeit, creating a program dubbed "Quezonian communism". He thought that this would counter communism in the Philippines.[6]: 232 

Republic of the Philippines

It was renamed as the Ministry of Labor and Employment in 1978. The agency was reverted to its original name after thePeople Power Revolution in 1986.[7]
