The first-ever Joint Sugar Tripartite Council-District Tripartite Council (STC-DTC) Congress brought together key stakeholders in the sugar industry to discuss strategies for revitalizing the sector and ensuring the well-being of sugar workers.

KEY stakeholders in the sugar industry gathered in Bacolod City in November for the first-ever Joint Sugar Tripartite Council-District Tripartite Council (STC-DTC) Congress to collaboratively explore strategies for revitalizing the sector while ensuring the well-being of sugar workers.

This three-day event provided an avenue for various stakeholders to discuss proposed amendments to the Implementing Rules and Regulations (IRR) of the Republic Act (RA) 6982, or the Sugar Amelioration Act of 1991. Atty. Sixto Rodriguez, Jr., DOLE regional director for Western Visayas, in his opening message, highlighted the commitment of stakeholders to uplift the lives of vulnerable workers in the sugar industry. He described the landmark event as a platform to advance the principles of RA 6982, which he called “an act of social justice” that recognizes the vital contributions of sugar workers and ensures their rights and welfare are prioritized. The congress kicked off with discussions on industry updates, key SAP milestones, and a review of proposed revisions. Day two featured best practices sharing, validation of outputs, and the closing ceremony. In his closing remarks, Undersecretary for the Workers’ Welfare and Protection Atty. Benjo Santos M. Benavidez recognized the inputs of the participants that outlined the program’s coverage and the requirements for the availment of benefits. “Your efforts laid out a clear guideline on who gets what at sino ba ang dapat makatanggap (and who should receive),” the Labor Undersecretary said, as he called for a more efficient and simplified availment process. “We hope we can ameliorate the lives of workers in the sugar industry and we hope the business of stakeholders will also grow . . . all we want are decent jobs for our workers in sugar industry,” he added, partly in Filipino.
