MANILA – As the International Labour Organization (ILO) started its four-day High-Level Tripartite Mission (HLTM) today, January 23, labor organizations are hopeful that violations of workers’ rights would be investigated.
ILO is an agency formed by the United Nations (UN), in order to investigate the cases of violations against the labor rights of Filipino workers, particularly their rights to establish and join a union. The HLTM is a tripartite body composed of representatives from three parties: the government, employers, and workers’ groups.
