The Philippine College of Occupational Medicine (PCOM), and affiliate society of the Philippine Medical Association and accredited by PhilHealth, held its 11th midyear convention at the Apo View Hotel in Davao City last August 21 to 22, 2009, carrying the theme " Refocusing on Worker's Welfare."
The event supported the PCOM's objective of intensifying the awareness and involvement in occupational health care of the different institutions, government and non-government organizations, societies, groups and the various specialties and sub-specialties in medicine. PCOM has remained the prime mover in the preservation, promotion, protection, and enhancement of the health, wellness, and safety of workers in all occupations thru its 2,815 members working throughout the country.
On the other hand, the symposium also coincides with the celebration of the Kadayawan Festival in Davao City.
The Southern Mindanao Chapter hosted the event spearheaded by the chapter's president Dr. Evelyn Abaloso-Lao. Moreover, Dr. Peter Dela Peña (0907-8139736), Dr. Luningning Cubero (0921-7941623), and the PCOM Secretariat (929-7741, pcom@skydsl.com.ph, pcomsecretariat@yahoo.com) was in charge of the registration.
