In attendance are NUBCW local members from Evergreen Mfg Corp. Regular project-based Employees Union (EMCRPEU), Women Welders Guild (WWG), and Association of Women Workers in the Construction Industry (AWWCI). NUBCW Secretary General, Santiago Nolla, lead the discussion on the current status of Filipino workers, and the Occupational Health and Safety laws in the Philippines. The members also echoed their concerns that most workers in the Philippines are underpaid yet the work is hard and dangerous. Women workers see that discrimination and harassment are still rampant, especially in the construction industry, that is why mainstreaming women in the construction industry plays an important role in eradicating this problem. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/search?q=iwmd22\">#iwmd22<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/28april.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/ph1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-5628\" src=\"https:\/\/28april.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/ph1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2016\" height=\"1512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/28april.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/ph1.jpg 2016w, https:\/\/28april.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/ph1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/28april.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/ph1-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/28april.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/ph1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/28april.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/ph1-1536x1152.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2016px) 100vw, 2016px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/28april.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/ph2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-5629\" src=\"https:\/\/28april.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/ph2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2016\" height=\"1512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/28april.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/ph2.jpg 2016w, https:\/\/28april.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/ph2-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/28april.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/ph2-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/28april.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/ph2-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/28april.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/ph2-1536x1152.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2016px) 100vw, 2016px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"sharedaddy sd-sharing-enabled\"><div class=\"robots-nocontent sd-block sd-social sd-social-icon sd-sharing\"><h3 class=\"sd-title\">Share this post<\/h3><div class=\"sd-content\"><ul><li class=\"share-facebook\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"sharing-facebook-5627\" class=\"share-facebook sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"https:\/\/28april.org\/?p=5627&amp;share=facebook\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on Facebook\" ><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-linkedin\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"sharing-linkedin-5627\" class=\"share-linkedin sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"https:\/\/28april.org\/?p=5627&amp;share=linkedin\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on LinkedIn\" ><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-twitter\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"sharing-twitter-5627\" class=\"share-twitter sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"https:\/\/28april.org\/?p=5627&amp;share=twitter\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on Twitter\" ><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-pocket\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"\" class=\"share-pocket sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"https:\/\/28april.org\/?p=5627&amp;share=pocket\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on Pocket\" ><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to share on Pocket (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-jetpack-whatsapp\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"\" class=\"share-jetpack-whatsapp sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"https:\/\/28april.org\/?p=5627&amp;share=jetpack-whatsapp\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on WhatsApp\" ><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to share on WhatsApp (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-print\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"\" class=\"share-print sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"https:\/\/28april.org\/?p=5627\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to print\" ><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to print (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-email\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"\" class=\"share-email sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"mailto:?subject=%5BShared%20Post%5D%20Philippines%3A%20Building%20workers%20protest%20low%20paid%2C%20unsafe%20work%20on%2028%20April&body=https%3A%2F%2F28april.org%2F%3Fp%3D5627&share=email\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to email a link to a friend\" data-email-share-error-title=\"Do you have email set up?\" data-email-share-error-text=\"If you&#039;re having problems sharing via email, you might not have email set up for your browser.
