Labor groups oppose gov’t rightsizing bill READ MORE:
In a statement, the Federation of Free Workers , the Public Sector Labor Independent Confederation , the Confederation of Independent Union in the Public Sector , and other NAGKAISA Labor Coalition affiliates said the government should instead protect the rights of government workers.
“We call on the government to ensure workers’ representation as it is crucial that the voices and concerns of the workers are heard and addressed throughout the process as the same is guaranteed by theConstitution,” United Workers of Duty Free Philippines-FFW chairperson Romeo Silva added. “This bill will also rationalize rules and operations to reduce regulatory burden on citizens, businesses and other stakeholders and design organizational structure of agencies to facilitate the implementation of programs and projects,” he added.
“These efforts resulted in the emaciation of rank-and-file workers, abloated top, institutionalization of contractualization schemes, and the privatization of public services,” the labor groups said.
