Labour unions demand end to unfair employment in government and private sectors

 

 

About 1,000 workers affiliated with three labour unions demonstrated in front of the Democracy monument Sunday morning on the occasion of the World Day for  Decent Work 2018 to highlight unfair employment in both government and private sectors.

 

The demonstrators later marched to the Government House to submit a letter signed by more than 10,000 workers to demand the government to end all forms of unfair employment existing in government bureaucracy and in the private sector.

 

The letter was received by Mr Kittipong Laoniphon, deputy director-general of the Labour Welfare and Protection Department who promised to pass it on to the labour minister before it is sent to the prime minister for consideration.

I think they're complaining about nepotism....something ingrained in Thai society and something that cannot be stopped.

And the reply was 'Know you place'

They are asking for a Transfer Under Protected Employment law. This was passed in the UK in 1981 and is a great benefit to workers whose company is bought out or merged.
