Commissioner Wescot commended WIFOL on initiative to inform workers about new labour policy.

commsww_wifollabourinformationsessionPhilipsburg- Leader of Government Commissioner of Labour Affairs Sarah Wescot-Williams, has commended the Workers Institute for Organized Labour (WIFOL) for the organization of information sessions for its members related to the new labour policy among other employee related matters.

Commissioner Wescot dropped in unannounced last week during one of the information sessions that was organized by WIFOL which included a presentation by the Head of the Labour Department Raphael Boasman.

The sessions are part of WIFOL's annual information sessions to educate workers about their rights.

"The initiative taken by the WIFOL is important for the worker and serves also to assure the workers of Government's concern for their wellbeing. An integral part of the foreign workers permit policy, is to give employers the opportunity to rectify and legalize the position of their present employees.

"The working class who are the drivers of the nation's economic engine must have a decent work environment. Decent work sums up the aspirations of people in their working lives. It encompasses opportunities for work that is productive and delivers a fair income, security in the workplace, social protection for families, better prospects for personal development and social integration and equality of opportunity and treatment for all women and men.

"Those who come from abroad to work here must also be properly taken care of and regulated accordingly in order to make a positive contribution within the confines of the rule of law and basic human rights. WIFOL is doing a great job with respect to the initiative taken on the new labour policy to inform the working class," Commissioner of Labour Sarah Wescot-Williams told the Government Information Service (GIS).
