After the May Day Rally, MTUC and trade unions will reach out to workers and their families to highlight the serious implications of the draconian amendments planned by the Human Resources Minister.
By G. Rajasekaran, Secretary General
In conjunction with Labour Day on May 1st, 2010, Selangor Menter Besar Y.A.B. Tan Sri Dato’ Abd Khalid bin Ibrahim will officially rename Jalan Barat Petaling Jaya to Jalan Dr V David. MTUC is thankful to the Selangor State Government for consenting to MTUC’s request to name a road in recognition of the late Dr V. David’s contribution to the Labour Movement. Indeed the entire trade union movement is honoured by the Selangor State Government’s decision.
MTUC is deeply concerned that the Human Resources Ministry is planning to introduce drastic changes to the Labour Legislations specifically aimed to remove all safeguards against unfair dismissals. Executive and Managerial Staff will no longer have any job security.
Government has proposed to remove the supervisory authority of the labour Department on several important aspect such as night work for women and limit on daily working hours.
Responding to the HR Minister’s criticism against MTUC, Rajasekaran said, the HR Ministry’s attempt to impose unacceptable conditions on the workers and trade unions, MTUC is forced to reach out to the public directly. Hulu Selangor by election presented a good opportunity to launch our public campaign.
