In celebration of International Month of Labor, Safe and Fair Philippines hosted “Babaeng BiyaHero Bida Talks: Pinay Migrant Workers Advancing a Better Normal in the World of Work”, a discussion featuring women overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) who gave their take on the most pressing labor issues that women face today, sharing their personal experiences in dealing with these issues and the work they are doing to promote decent work and a better normal for their fellow migrant workers.

The campaign calls on government officials, stakeholders, communities, and migrant workers themselves to promote a more equitable, safe, fair, and better normal for every Filipina by ensuring that they are equipped with the knowledge and capability to access effective and timely services that will support them throughout their migration experience.

One of its initiatives includes the Babaeng BiyaHero helpline and mobile app. Safe and Fair Philippines’ Celebrity Champion, Maine Mendoza, headlines the launch of the mobile application.

The mobile app aims to give Pinay Migrant Workers safe access to practical tips when working abroad, important hotlines to call, maps and details of the Philippine embassy in their respective countries in Southeast Asia.

You may download the Babaeng Biyahero mobile app in App Store and Play Store. For more details, visit and follow the Safe and Fair Philippines Facebook page for more information and the latest updates. Go to the Babaeng BiyaHero website for more information about the situation of Filipina migrant workers, or if you need to contact or report any incidents.
