Agency hit for error in credentials of Balais

Published by rudy Date posted on June 21, 2012

THE Trade Union Congress of the Philippines on Wednesday assailed the Department of Labor and Employment for interfering with internal union matters and privileges of the labor group by nominating a non-TUCP member as a worker adviser in the 2012 International Labor Conference in Geneva, according to former Senator and TUCP president Ernesto Herrera.

But the DOLE maintained that the designation of Balais as the TUCP secretary general in the initial credentials was an “honest oversight which the government immediately corrected in its final and official submission of credentials.”

The DOLE wrote the ILO Legal Adviser asking that the title of Balais be corrected as “President, Philippine Transport and General Workers Organization and not as General Secretary of the TUCP.” –Vito Barcelo, Manila Standard Today
