XI. Issues to Address


Occupational Disease: Cancer of the Philippine Business Sector

The main issues to be addressed on this employee welfare matter revolve around the fulfillment of the rights bestowed upon employees with work-related injuries and diseases and their encompassing backdrop in the Philippines, including clearly delineating the liability of both the employer and employee.


  • What are the issues of work-related diseases and injuries at large in the Philippine set-up?
  • What is the stand of the government on occupational diseases?
  • Does the government give enough and efficient service on this matter?
  • To what extent are occupational diseases covered by employers’ liability?
  • Do employers act on claims in accordance to governing mandates and laws?
  • Are employees with occupational diseases given sufficient attention, benefits and consideration?
  • Do employees with occupational diseases know the appropriate actions, or at the least, their rights on their cases?
