The Philippines: Not just all about Beaches and Palm Trees!
For almost a decade now, the offshore business process outsourcing Industry in the Philippines has been serving hundreds of firms from different businesses, and industries from all parts of the world. This industry alone has been able to help provide jobs for tens of thousands of skilled Filipino workers and millions for Filipinos all over the country in salary revenue. But what is the future of offshore outsourcing industry in the Philippines? Will the slow economic times overseas affect its growth?
Most economic analysts believe that a little recession could actually help the offshore outsourcing industry, but it is definitely not an “economic recession proof” industry. If the economic slow-down turns to a total economic collapse, this would be damaging to all industries involving offshore business process outsourcing industries such as IT (Information Technology) and voice based call centers in the Philippines. If an economic collapse ever happens, big businesses will fall and huge companies will surely crumble due to slow sales which will lead to employment lay-offs and eventually, bankruptcy.
On the other hand, as mentioned, an economic slow-down is good for the offshore outsourcing industry. Huge industries and companies are wanting to cut costs and increase their profit margin and the smaller corporations and entrepreneurs are looking to outsourcing to help GROW their businesses. If they want to do that, they should seriously look into outsourcing in the Philippines and this is what is happening right now.
Compared with India, China, and Russia, these foreign business giants prefer to outsource in the Philippines because of the westernized culture, cheaper labor, modernized telecommunications infrastructures, and the quality of service that only the Filipino people can give.
Other than that, the Philippine government assured foreign businesses who want to outsource in the Philippines that they will provide assistance if needed. Different government institutions are prioritizing to develop the offshore business process outsourcing industry in the Philippines because this is the bright future for the majority of Filipinos and potentially for the country on a while, internationally.
