Labor groups seek dialogue with Marcos

FRUSTRATED that the proposed P150 wage hike was not mentioned in the State of the Nation Address of President Ferdinand Marcos Jr., labor groups are seeking a dialogue with the Chief Executive.

Marcos did not mention the workers' appeal for a P150 across-the-board legislated wage hike, and labor groups claimed that the Chief Executive never really held a dialogue with the sector since he assumed the presidency in 2022.
