NAPC-WIS adopted IETFA drafted by ALLWIES

Susanita Tesiorna drafted the "Informal Economy Transitioning to Formal Act" and presented to the National Anti-Poverty Commission-Workers in the Informal Sector Council in a legally constituted meeting on July 22, 2016 at the NAPC Conference Room.

The draft has the very important provisions of the ILO Recommnedation No. 204 of 2016 with the important provisions from the MACWIE bills filed in the 16th Congress. It is expected that it will be presented to other informal sector advocates like the MAGCAISA, the social partners and the Departmet of Labor and Employment before submission to sponsors of both houses (Senate and House of Representatives). 

The ILO Recommendation No. 204 of 2016 is in No. 8 of the Sustainable Development Goals and according to DG Guy Rider of the ILO, it will save half of humanity. All member countries of ILO are encouraged to implement this.

All advocates are invited for the next round of meeting with relevant agencies. Notices will be sent to you soon.
