The Attorney General of the Federation, AGF, and Minister of Justice, Lateef Fagbemi, says the Federal Government will continue to work on ways to improve workers’ welfare.
Fagbemi gave this assurance on Tuesday in Abuja during the opening session of a three-day training workshop for state counsel on 'Proceedings in the National Industrial Court', organized by the Federal Ministry of Justice. He said besides the measures already put in place, including wage increase, the Federal Government will continue to prioritise the welfare of the nation’s workforce.
The AGF commended judges of the National Industrial Court of Nigeria, NICN, for their contributions to enhancing industrial harmony in the country. “Thus, today the NICN, being a specialized court with expertise in the increasingly complex field of labour law, employment matters and trade unions, plays a critical role in the protection and balancing of employer and employee rights, ensuring socio-industrial stability, and economic development of the country.
