The Philippines is an archipelago with major employment centers in Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao. Hospitality opportunities are strongest in Manila, Cebu, Boracay, Palawan, Bohol and other resort destinations, particularly in hotels, restaurants, events and tourism services. Filipino culture is warm, sociable and family-oriented, with English widely used in workplaces. Life ranges from fast-paced urban living in Manila to a more relaxed beach lifestyle on resort islands. Housing, transport and living costs vary considerably by location; Manila is generally more expensive than provincial destinations. Foreign employees normally need an employer-sponsored Alien Employment Permit and an appropriate work visa, commonly a 9(g) pre-arranged employee visa. A tourist status does not authorize employment. Candidates should confirm visa sponsorship, accommodation, medical coverage, taxes and relocation support with Shangri-La before accepting an offer.
