    BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF FUNCTION

    A member representing the interest of workers and their


    families in the nine-man Social Security Commission is the Secretary of
    the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE). Pursuant to
    Republic Act 8282 or the Social Security Act of 1997, the governing and
    policy-making body of the Social Security System (SSS) shall be “composed of the Secretary of Labor and
    Employment or his duly designated undersecretary, the SSS president and seven appointive members.”

    When Silvestre H. Bello III assumed his post as DOLE secretary in July 2016, he automatically took on
    the post as ex-officio member of the Commission.

    MAJOR ACHIEVEMENTS

    A seasoned lawyer and human rights advocate, Secretary Bello (Bebot to friends, relatives and

    Justice (DOJ) from 1986 to 1991, then appointed Secretary until 1992. He served as Solicitor-General for two (2)
    years during the term of President Fidel Ramos, and again as Justice Secretary in 1998. Under the
    administration of President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, he was tasked to lead the government panel in talking
    peace with the Communist Party of the Philippines-New People’s Army-National Democratic Front – a post he
    held for few years.

    Under the new Administration of President Rodrigo R. Duterte, aside from assigning him with the task
    of successfully negotiating and just and lasting peace, he was also entrusted to lead the charge to end “Endo,”
    illegal contractualization and ensure industrial peace.

    Annuity Plan & Pension Corp., Red Eagle Lending Investors Corp., CAP Life Insurance Corp., CAP General
    Insurance Corp., Puerto Azul, Baguio Country Club, Philippine Plaza Hotel, Urban Bank, and Ambassador
