DOLE to file new draft of SOT bill by Monday after Duterte veto

The Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) said they will try their best to present new version of Security of Tenure Bill after President Rodrigo Duterte vetoed the bill sought to end contractualization in the county.

In his veto message, Duterte said the bill “unduly broadens the scope and definition of prohibited labor-only contracting, effectively prescribing forms of contractualization that are not particularly unfavorable to the employees involved.”
