of the LGBT community reported having experienced physical, verbal, emotional and sexual abuse within their homes, in schools, in their workplaces. Some report having been denied health care and restricted from using public facilities (such as the LRT and MRT). According to the Trans Murder Monitoring Project, a pilot project of Transgender Europe, there were 40 transgender or gender-variant people who were killed in the Philippines between January 2008 and December 2015. Children Discrimination against children takes the form of physical, sexual and psychological abuse. According to International Labor Organization (ILO) studies in 2012, approximately 2 million Filipino children were exposed to hazardous working environments, such as in quarries and mines. There were also at least 246,011 street children nationwide, 11,346 of which were in Metro Manila alone. Children continue to be recruited by non-state armed groups. According to anecdotal reports, some criminal syndicates use minors to carry out their illegal activities. They were also victims of police abuse while in detention for committing minor crimes. Persons With Disabilities (PWDs) Despite the passage o f Republic Act No. 10070 in 2010, which established institutional mechanisms to ensure implementation of programs and services for PWDs, only six of every 10 local government units had Persons with Disability Affairs Office in 2018. More than half of the provinces (58% ) and higher income municipalities (63% ) are non-compliant with the Act. A 2013 study conducted by Christian D. Mina entitled, "Employment o f Persons with Disabilities (PWDs) in the Philippines: The Case o f Metro Manila and Rosario, Batangad' as part of the Discussion Paper Series No. 2013 of the Philippine Institute for Development Studies stated that less than 10 percent of more than 100,000 employable PWDs registered with the DOLE were wage-employed. Majority of the employed PWDs in rural and urban areas are considered "vulnerable workers" since most have informal work arrangements and are less likely to have access to employment benefits or social protection programs.
