The Department of Migrant Workers (DMW) is assisting the family of a female Overseas Filipino Worker (OFW) who was tragically killed in Kuwait. The agency is coordinating the repatriation of her remains to the Philippines.
The DMW has pledged to support the bereaved family during this difficult time, ensuring that the necessary arrangements are made for the swift return of the victim’s body. The agency is also working closely with Kuwaiti authorities to investigate the circumstances surrounding the OFW’s death and to seek justice on behalf of the victim.
This incident has raised concerns about the safety and well-being of Filipino workers abroad, particularly in the Middle East. The Philippine government has reiterated its commitment to protecting the rights and welfare of OFWs, emphasizing the importance of monitoring their working conditions and providing assistance when needed.
The DMW continues to engage with host countries to ensure that the rights of Filipino workers are upheld and that mechanisms are in place to address any issues that may arise during their employment overseas.
