In
collaboration with Global Union Federations*, the Decent Work Working
Group organised a Consultation Meeting on Reforming the Industrial
Relations Act 1967 and Trade Union Act 1959 on Sunday, 13th January 2019.
The
Ministry of Human Resources has uploaded the proposed amendments to the
Industrial Relations Act 1967 and Trade Union Act 1959 in their
official website. Hence, once again IndustriALL Malaysian Council and
Decent Work Working Group initiated another one full day consultation
meeting on reforming Industrial Relations Act 1967 and Trade Union Act
1959.
The
key focus of the consultation meeting was on developing a set of joint
campaign strategies to communicate these demands widely amongst
Malaysian workers and to put pressure on decision-makers to implement
meaningful change.
