Moldova - 3.3 Manual Labour
Overview
Manual Labour is difficult to come by in Moldova as a lot of Moldovans working in those areas tend to immigrate to neighbouring countries where the pay is higher. For instance, drivers, storekeepers, agricultural workers are difficult to find.[JM1]
According to the European Foundation for the Improvement of Living and Working Conditions:
The Moldovan parliament is the legislative body that adopts the laws regulating working life and industrial relations at national level. Within the parliament, the Committee on Social Protection, Healthcare and Family monitors and submits amendments to improve the legal frameworks for work and industrial relations.
At government level, several authorities are involved in the regulation of working life: the National Commission for Consultations and Collective Bargaining, the Ministry of Labour and Social Protection and the Ministry of Finance.
The National Commission for Consultations and Collective Bargaining is an autonomous tripartite body of public interest and a social partner that was established to resolve work-related and socioeconomic issues at national level.
