Another niece entered the so call training program for six months with no salary. This time it was with a well known business, WESTERN UNION. But she was guaranteed to be placed in their labor pool. HA HA HA!
Not sure I find the humor in this but perhaps you should take a look through the Philippine Labor Code and do something about it if they have been wronged. Presidential Decree No. 442, s. 1974 | Official Gazette of the Republic of the Philippines
I think we all feel for these people being wronged here and the labour laws. The government give no help,if you get sick it's hard luck! We are lucky we were born on the right side of the world and got an education and a well paid job,that's why we are here now. I will also say there are those who don't give a sh*t and will cheat and rob if they can but you can usually tell who's who. Some of them really don't help themselves, sometimes in life people need to make a stand for what is right. It seems to be the larger companies who use their employees and pay the authorities to do nothing when a local complains.
Yes it is Franchised Local Company. Funny thing about the Philippines, No one will complain, My wife worked as a security guard at Lee Plaza and her company took one half her salary and after working 10 hours, she did not have enough to by a hamburger. She says no one complains because they don't want them to come after her. Philippines live in fear of BIG BROTHER.
I doubt very much that WU are even interested or aware of the bad practices of their franchisees. As long as they are getting their revenues it will continue.
Working for free all day for 6 months, handing out money? What a mindf*** that must be. That's like getting starving people in refugee camps to run the cafeteria for the aid workers. If I ever go to a Western Union to pick up money and the lady is a total b*tch, now I'll understand. And will say sorry.
