MANILA, Philippines- Hiniling ng labor group sa Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) na magtalaga ng ilang sa mga miyembro nito na magsisilbing “system protectors” sa gitna ng “workplace tragedies.”
Sinabi ni Partido Manggagawa (PM) chairperson Rene Magtubo na mapalalakas nito ang 1,200 labor inspectors na itinalagang mag-inspeksyon sa mahigit isang milyong workplaces sa buong bansa.
“We suggest that DOLE assist union officials as labor protectors. DOLE must inspect firms on regulation with union standards,” ani Magtubo.
“By doing so, the number of regulators and regulations can be multiplied several times, compliance can be reinforced and personnel’s lives can be preserved,” dagdag niya.
Mababawasan umano ng pagtatalaga ng workers’ groups bilang labor inspectors, ang “intentional conformity” at “self-assessment” ng employers. RNT/SA
