LABOR groups are now eyeing to meet with President Ferdinand “Bongbong” R. Marcos, Jr. by next month before the arrival of the International Labor Organization high level tripartite mission in the country.
“We are still waiting for the schedule [of the President]. We hope it will be next year before the high-level mission comes,” Mendoza told BusinessMirror in an interview. Federation of Free Workers President Sonny Matula said they hope they to raise all of their priority labor agenda during the meeting with the President.
Among the issues they will present are reforms in the existing wage mechanism created under Republic Act 6727 of the Wage Rationalization Act; establishment of a robust public employment program; an end to illegal contractualization and trade union repression both in the private and public sector, and the holding of regular labor summits for policy reforms discussion.
