To whom it may concern, Good day! May I request your good office to share the data of employed nurses in the Philippines per Region from 2012-2018 as this is a valuable input in my research regarding depleting supply of nurses and its impact in the Philippines healthcare Industry Best Regards, Ian Dimaguila

Your Request You asked for Number of Nurses Employed in the Philippines (Per Region). Response to Request Response to Request PSA releases statistics on labor and employment based on the result of the Labor Force Survey (LFS) which is available at https://psa.gov.ph/statistics/survey/labor-and-employment/labor-force-survey/table. Unfortunately, the occupation gathered through the survey is limited to the following classification: Managers Professionals Technicians and Associate Professionals Clerical Support Workers Service and Sales Workers Skilled Agricultural, Forestry and Fishery Workers Craft and Related Trades Workers Plant and Machine Operators and Assemblers Elementary Occupations Armed Forces Occupations Statistics on nurses is lumped in the professionals. Moreover, we have a compilation Philippine Statistical Yearbook (PSY) which has a chapter presenting the number of government nurses (see https://psa.gov.ph/sites/default/files/2018%20T9_13.xlsx). You may also coordinate with the Department of Health for further details on the information on nurses. Thank you. Respectfully, Simonette Nisperos FOI Receiving Officer
