ENDING ENDO: Senator Joel Villanueva, chair of the Senate Committee on Labor, Employment and Human Resources Development, presides over a public hearing proposing the prohibition of labor-only contracting, or Endo. “Contractual work arrangement, as one of the prevailing non-standard forms of employment, is a globally recognized labor practice. Endo, on the other hand, is a scheme designed to skirt labor regulations and deliberately deny workers the rights and benefits they are entitled to. I put my faith and hope that through these hearings and parallel consultations, we can agree on a piece of legislation that will put an end to Endo not just to ten thousand regularized employees during the first 100 days of this administration but to millions of Filipino Endo workers.” Villanueva said. Also in photo are Senator Nancy Binay and Senate President Pro-Tempore Franklin Drilon. (PRIB photo by Romeo Bugante/13 October 2016)
