MTUC urges govt to ratify treaty

PETALING JAYA: Following a backlash over its vote against an international convention on workplace harassment, the Malaysian Trades Union Congress (MTUC) has claimed that its action was due to “certain misconceptions”.

Saying he was not going to explain what the misconceptions were, its president Datuk Abdul Halim Mansor said the MTUC would now push for the government to ratify the treaty known as the Convention Concerning Elimination of Violence and Harassment in the World of Work.
