Interest disputes, such as conflicts during the CBA negotiation or plan for dismissal, should be dealt outside the court. Consequently, workers do not trust the bodies. In other words, it is impossible to form other such bodies either permanently or incidentally. In this case, the current bodies are more appropriately called the government administrative institution. In conclusion, the bill does not provide any protection on the workers basic rights.
Workers can only form or become members of the trade unions acknowledged by the government.
It is almost impossible for them to form or become members of an independent trade union without the government's intervention. Under the new bill, trade unions function only at the plant level, in CBA negotiations and is considered as an industrial relations disputing party. In the national tripartite body, the unions will only be considered as a legitimating body for the government's policies. Currently, there are many of Manpower Ministry policies, recommended by the national tripartite body, such as on dismissals and minimum wage that disadvantage workers. The right to strike is limited, allowed only in the factory compound and is merely to show a law upholding by the management.
