Forty (40) economically-disadvantaged youth will be hired by the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) Central Office this summer of 2018 for its government internship program (GIP).

DPWH Secretary Mark A. Villar said college students and out-of-school youth with minimum of second year college education aged 18 to 23 are once again encouraged to apply for a learn-and-work experience in government that will allow them to earn as much as 75 percent of the prevailing minimum wage in the National Capital Region.
