The
international community, especially the United States of America, doesn’t see
the issue as a laughing matter. In fact, specializing research and regulating
bodies have been established to cater to the cause and adhere to international
standardizing guidelines in relation to occupational safety and health. These
bodies commit to the improvement and more efficient management of Environment,
Health and Safety within public and private organizations in a global scale.
A complaint of
an ailing worker in the US against a company unwilling to render disability
compensations and benefits can easily lead to a half-million law suit, and
similar cases are not unusual in their justice system. The information
dissemination on the rights of US citizens regarding occupational safety and
health is incredibly high as there is an active propagation of labor laws as
initiated both by the government and private sectors. Such issues also catch
significant media attention which proves that safety and health matters at work
are growing interests in their culture.
Do Filipinos act
the same with such violation of their right?
