Labor Forum calls for halt to union discrimination
More than 20 NGOs and unions took part in the Labor Forum at the World Vision Cambodia ’s headquarters in Phnom Penh yesterday to seek a halt to discrimination against trade unions, according to Cambodian Press Review on June 20, 2008 which reviewed Rasmei Kampuchea and Koh Santepheap, the two leading Khmer language newspapers in Cambodia.
They issued a statement listing several forms of trade union discrimination in the country. One of the items was short termed employment contract making by employer. The review failed to explain how the statement argued regarding this point.
No government officials and employer associations participated in the forum, which for better solution I think they should be there to discuss, clarify and find ways out.
