01 — WHY FILIPINOS

Why employ
Filipino workers.

EN

English as standard

The Philippines is the world’s third-largest English-speaking country. Your supervisors and team leaders communicate without an interpreter from day one.

24/7

Work ethic

Attendance, shift work, overtime. Filipino workers commit to long-term contracts and stay — turnover is a fraction of what you know from the European market.

CERT

Certified professions

Welders, CNC operators, production operators, caregivers and cooks. We verify and test every candidate’s qualifications directly in the Philippines against European standards.

CZ+PH

Licensed on both sides

Orienta Czech is a Czech company licensed by the Ministry of Labour (MPSV); Prime Search is a Philippine company licensed by the DMW. The entire recruitment is legal, direct and fully under control.

WHAT SETS US APART

One group.
Our own licences at both ends.

Most "Filipino workers" offers rest on a chain of subcontractors: a local intermediary → a foreign agency in Manila → recruiters further down the line. We operate both licensed agencies ourselves. One partner, one line of accountability, no middlemen.

Children with school-supply packages and the Prime Search and Orienta Czech team visiting an orphanage in the Philippines — Hands Together, Hearts Forever programme

RESPONSIBILITY

Hands Together,
Hearts Forever.

Our people come from the Philippines — and part of what we do goes back there. The Hands Together, Hearts Forever programme, initiated by Tomáš Surka, regularly supports children from orphanages and disadvantaged families in the Philippines: school supplies, basic equipment, education. It is funded by personal contributions from the founders and by Prime Search Manpower Agency, our licensed agency in Manila. Around 75 children received packages on the first visit. It is not a one-off event but a lasting commitment.

08 — FAQ

Frequently asked
questions.

How long does recruitment from the Philippines take?

We present candidates within 2–4 weeks of the assignment. The whole process including visas and employee cards typically takes 3–5 months, with first arrivals within 120 days. You get an exact schedule in the quote within 48 hours.

How much does recruiting Filipino workers cost?

The price depends on the profession, number of workers and location. We prepare a transparent quote within 48 hours — no hidden fees, no obligation.

Which professions can be recruited in the Philippines?

Most often production operators, welders (MIG/MAG, TIG), CNC operators, assembly and warehouse staff, forklift drivers, caregivers, cooks and hospitality staff. The Philippines has strong technical education — we can fill specialised positions too.

Can we test candidates in person?

Yes. In Manila we organise practical tests (welding tests, manual skills) and interviews with your team — in person on site, or online. We select together; you have the final say.

Who handles visas and paperwork?

We do, completely, on both sides — the Philippine DMW process and the Czech employee card. Applications are enrolled in the government Qualified Employee Programme. You only supply documents about the position and working conditions.

How well do the workers speak English?

The Philippines is the world's third-largest English-speaking country — English is the language of schools and public offices. Your supervisors communicate with workers without an interpreter from day one.

Who arranges accommodation and arrival?

We do. Airport transfer, accommodation, registrations, bank account and SIM card. A coordinator speaking Czech and English and 24/7 support are available — workers start prepared, not lost.

What if a worker doesn't start or leaves?

Turnover of Filipino workers is a fraction of the European standard — they commit to long-term contracts. For outages we have contractual replacement guarantees, and thanks to ongoing aftercare we solve problems before they arise.

How many people can be recruited at once?

From 1 worker to hundreds. Thanks to our permanent office in Manila, interviews take place every day — no assignment is too small or too large for us.
