00:00 The Department of Labor and Employment or DoLE began its consultation of various labor groups to discuss a possible
00:07 implementation of a minimum wage hike for workers in the National Capital Region or
00:12 NCR. Labor groups have the chance to present and express their side through a position paper
00:18 which will serve as a guide for authorities who decide whether to grant or not the request for an increase in the minimum wage in
00:26 Metro Manila. The
00:27 consultations are being done following a directive from President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. for concerned
00:33 agencies to look into the wage rates of workers in the country.
00:38 We will be fair and we will listen to all the opinions of both labor and
00:46 employer as well as our other sectors
00:52 that can help us to arrive at a very fair
00:58 wage determination.
01:03 Bye.
