We "discovered" three codes of conduct in the dialect [Compliance of the single enterprise
is under verification.]
We completed the survey for baseline working
conditions on a random sample of 201
enterprises (33,000 workers) in Bataan,
Cavite, Laguna, NCR, Subic and Clark.
Initial results have been presented to DOLE,
DTI, DILG, Ombudsman, codes independent
monitors/codes oversight boards, others,
for their information and action.
As by-product of our verification work,
we have:
Collective agreements (CBAs) in two
companies (1,125 workers, 864 women);
Unions in three companies are negotiating CBAs
(627 workers, 392 women)
Won accreditation as exclusive bargaining
agent in six other companies (480
workers, 392women);
Lost the election in two other companies
(720 workers, 374 women);
Filed petitions for certification election (PCE)
in nine other companies (5,156 workers,
3,817 women);
Registered unions in five other companies
(2,203 workers, 1,510 women).
WE BELIEVE UNIONS IN ENTERPRISES
ARE THE ONLY SUSTAINABLE WAY
OF VERIFYING COMPLIANCE WITH
NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL LABOR STANDARDS
