MANILA, Philippines — Presidential candidate and Sen. Manny Pacquiao said he will put an end to labor contractualization and raise the salary rate of workers in the country if he wins in the May elections.

 

“Tapusin natin ang contractualization para guminhawa naman ‘yung ating manggagawa,” Pacquiao said in an interview aired Tuesday on One PH’s “KandidaTalks.”

 

(Let’s end contractualization so the workers’ lives will get better.)

 

In 2019, President Rodrigo Duterte vetoed a proposed legislation seeking to ensure job security or the “End Endo” bill. “Endo”—a term for “end of contract”—is an abusive labor practice where a worker is hired up to five months to skirt a labor law granting permanent tenure on the sixth month of service.
