Taipa brethren benefit from Labor Law seminar

Wong discussed pertinent laws, old and recent, and its latest amendments. Afterwards, a Q&A followed during which she answered the questions of the attendees. Such an activity is helpful to brethren who are migrant workers so that they may know their rights and benefits. They also learned how to properly conduct themselves while working.

“I learned the government rules in instances such as rest days, holidays, and the prohibitions,” said Olivia Ramil, Christian Family Organizations (CFO) officer and district multimedia officer.

Also a CFO officer, and Light of Salvation officer from the Local Congregation of Taipa, Julia Ramirez, said, “This seminar is truly a great help for me, my guide towards a more secure livelihood, and to avoid misunderstandings between me and my employer.”

Abner Vinoya, choir member from the Local Congregation of Taipa, said that it is nice to learn thoroughly his rights as an OFW: “This activity is timely and very important for us. I thank the Executive Minister, Brother Eduardo V. Manalo, for approving activities like this that shows his concern for us OFWs.” — With reports from INC News Section
