Labor slams zero dialogue with Marcos

GOING into the second Labor Day under the current administration, the Trade Union Congress of the Philippines yesterday questioned why President Marcos Jr. has continuously failed to meet with the labor sector. In a statement, the TUCP asked the Department of Labor and Employment over the absence of any dialogue, especially during the annual May 1 celebration, between workers and Marcos.

On the other hand, the workers organization said they do not find any reason to celebrate the 50th year of Presidential Decree 442, or the Labor Code of the Philippines. This, TUCP said, is despite the Labor Code being the issuance of Marcos' father, the late dictator Ferdinand Sr. 'Fifty years after its enactment, the Labor Code, a landmark social legislation of Ferdinand Marcos, Sr., has now become a relic and a dismal failure in delivering its promise of social justice,' it said.
