BUTUAN CITY, May 7 (PIA) – The Trade Union Congress of the Philippines (TUCP), in cooperation with the Japan International Labor Foundation (JILAF) will hold the Constructive Industrial Relations, Employment Security, and Equitable Income national conference on May 13-14, 2014 at the Traders Hotel in Manila.
Former senator and TUCP president Ernesto Herrera said the two-day conference hopes to contribute to the achievement of decent work and inclusive growth for all and the strengthening of the TUCP and its affiliate federations and enterprise-based unions.
Herrera said the event also aims to provide an opportunity for union leaders to understand and analyze current labor and employment realities, issues, and challenges at the national and enterprise levels and explain/discuss TUCP’s perspectives and positions on industrial relations and decent work.
“The activity will also engage government and employers on discussions towards constructive industrial relations, including on employment security, equitable income, and decent work, among others; derive lessons from the experiences of Japanese unions and those of other countries where JILAF operates and develop a trade union action and recommendations towards achieving decent work, inclusive growth and workers’ rights,” Herrera added.
Some one hundred trade union leaders and activists are expected to attend.
It was learned that officials from JILAF, Employers Confederation of the Philippines (ECOP), Japanese Labor Attaché’ Hiroyuki Enoki and Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) Secretary Rosalinda Baldoz are also invited to grace the said event.
TUCP is an affiliate of the International Trade Union Council (ITUC), a worldwide umbrella association of labor unions. (FEA/PIA-Caraga)
