P3PWD party-list Rep. Rowena Guanzon criticized the qualifications of a popular franchise for their service crew applicants.
Through her social media post, Guanzon made a sarcastic remark after she saw that the qualification of the said company was based on the looks of their potential job-seeker.
One of the qualifications released by the said company stated that the applicant must have a ‘good set of teeth’ and their ‘weight must be proportionate to height’.
“Bawal daw bungal, magpabrace sana muna,” Guanzon wrote.
Netizens also made several comments against the company, asking if the qualification they were looking for in its applicants matched the salary they were offering.
“Ang taas ng qualification magsandok at magluto lng nman ng patatas,” said netizen Raquel.
“In most, if not all first-world countries, the “weight must be proportionate to height” and “must have clear complexion “is considered Discrimination,” netizen Benjie commented.
“Sa mga entry-level jobs, dapat sapat nang qualification yung papasa sa medical exam at “willing to be trained” para makapag-bigay nang pagkakataong makapag-trabaho yung mga marginalized sectors kagaya ng mga kulang sa educational background, senior citizens na kaya pang magtrabaho at PWDs,” netizen Allan remarked.
As of writing, the said company has yet to release any statement on the qualification released by one of its branches.
