KMU calls for more protests against government’s anti-worker policies 0 SHARES Share it! “Millions of workers and their families are suffering from hunger,” Lito Ustarez, vice chairperson, of KMU said in a statement. Duterte’s campaign promise of higher wages and regularization of all Filipino workers remain elusive,” he added. He said the Filipino workers are also subjected to further depression of wages, unsafe working conditions, and curtailment of workers’ rights to unionize and organize. The KMU also called on representatives in the 18th Congress to legislate a Php750 national minimum wage to alleviate the living condition of Filipino workers and their families.
