snoop1130 Posted May 6 Share Posted May 6 The Thai Labor Ministry is planning to introduce a new law to protect and support the estimated 20 million freelance workers in the country. These workers are involved in various professions such as farming, vending, transportation and food services. The proposed law, which is soon expected to be presented to the Cabinet and then to the House of Representatives, will set procedures to formally register freelancers and encourage their grouping into associations. The proposed law will establish a fund to provide soft loans and offer life and health insurance to freelance workers. It will also give a formal definition of a freelance worker. To improve the economic stability of freelancers, the country's Labour Minister, Phiphat Ratchakitprakarn, has initiated a policy encouraging the formation of groups of freelance workers in each subdistrict. The aim of this policy is to enhance freelancers' access to social security benefits and financial aid. In addition, the Labor Ministry is planning to work with the Commerce Ministry, the Interior Ministry, and the Tourism and Sports Ministry. This collaboration will aim to identify and create work and product markets that are suitable for freelance workers, thereby enhancing their job opportunities and access to the market.
