Petition for Govt to Pass New Labor Laws

by Admin on October 18, 2017

Manas, Kosol, the president of the Confederation of Thai Labor has urged the government to pass a draft amendment to the Labor Protection Act before the end of the year, according to Bangkok Post.

The bill, which was drawn up by workers, employers and the Thai Labour Ministry, was approved on August 15th this year. It contains improved conditions regarding redundancy, maternity leave and business leave.

Under the new Thailand labor law, employees who are made redundant after 20 years or more of working for a company will be granted a cash sum amounting to the equivalent of 400 days’ pay.

Kosol raised concerns of opposition from the National Legislative Assembly as business owners could see it as a financial burden. “Several members of the NLA are entrepreneurs and represent the business community. The workers have no representatives in the NLA. A few of them should be appointed to the NLA scrutiny committee,” he said.
