Filipino workers battle against precarious work

The issue of insecure work affects workers all over the world, and in the Philippines it has come to prominence during the recent presidential elections. It is in this context that the members of PALEA are calling on the new Filipino President to pressure Philippines Airlines to honour the agreement around secure employment contracts. At a different workplace, 400 manufacturing workers have gone on strike to also press the new administration to implement secure employment legislation.
