On August 28, 2019, the Government of Yukon announced the plans to cooperate with the Philippines on immigration programming and cooperation on human resource development. The negotiations between the parties will address the employment opportunities in Yukon for Filipino workers. Yukon's goal is to enhance the recruitment, protection, and placement of Filipino workers in Yukon as well as promotion of the Yukon Nominee Program (YNP). The Yukon and Philippine governments will now work towards a Memorandum of Understanding for improvement of the recruitment system for Filipino workers in Yukon.
