CEBU CITY, Jan 16 (PIA) — The Employees Compensation Commission (ECC) will gather employers in Cebu for a one-day seminar on the Employees Compensation Program (ECP).
Around 150 employers and human resource officers from the private and public sectors are expected to attend the free seminar on Jan. 24 at the Waterfront Hotel, said Ingrid Zafra Yumang of the ECC in Cebu.
This activity will also be attended by union representatives, added Yumang.
The gathering is in line with ECC’s goal of intensifying awareness of workers and employers about the ECP, and the benefits that they may avail from it.
ECC, said Yumang, is a government corporation attached to the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) created to implement the ECP.
According to its website, the commission provides a package of benefits for public and private sector employees and their dependents in case of work-related contingencies such as sickness, injury, disability, or death. (RMN/PIA-7 Cebu)
