A new Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) was signed between the management of Taganito Mining Corporation (TMC) and the company’s rank-and-file union Taganito Labor Union (TLU) last March 24.
Martin Antonio “Dennis” G. Zamora, CEO and President of Nickel Asia Corporation, together with other NAC Officers, graced the important event as signatories for the side of management.
Zamora lauded the negotiators, calling the new CBA a necessary and important step to ensure that employees can cope with the ever-changing, more challenging, economic, and social landscape in the country.
The President of TLU, Pedro Urbiztondo, responded on behalf of the Union and expressed gratitude to the company for always understanding and appreciating the voice from their side of the table.
Highlighting the provisions that center on the health of employees and the education of their children as well as the efficiency of a performance-based compensation, Zamora said a CBA is deemed successful if it effectively safeguards the interests of both the company and employees, with focus on business sustainability while maintaining a cordial relationship between parties.
The conclusion of the CBA with TMC and the rank-and-file union panel is a two-year agreement that will be effective from February 1, 2023 to January 31, 2025.
