MTUC secretary-general J Solomon says a consensus has only been reached on certain areas of the proposed amendments and decisions on other areas affecting workers had been put off for further discussion.
Yesterday, the ministry released a statement thanking MTUC and MEF for supporting the amendments to the two acts. The labour law reforms are being carried out through tripartite consultations, involving MTUC, MEF and ministry officials. He said at the most recent tripartite meeting, stakeholders were only able to deliberate the Employment Act 1955 but had yet to finalise anything.“Both MTUC and MEF were able to agree on some amendments and the rest were to be sorted out through bilateral discussions between MTUC and MEF to reach a joint solution.
He said the ministry’s claim that it had always been committed to the process of consultation was not true.
