In partnership with the NAGKAISA and other trade union groups, PTGWO take its vital role in leading a massive mobilization rally at Mendiola, Manila. More than 150 local union affiliates from transport, manufacturing industries of textile, garments, metal, petroleum, chemicals, food, beverages, mining , electronics, and paper gathered together to show its full forces to express its disappointment on PNOY government.

President Aquino deliberately failed to resolve issues presented by the labor groups during May 1, 2013 Labor Day Meeting at Malacañan.

PNOY administration is not clear on social workers policies specifically for the betterment of all workers. Extensive contractualization endure by the corporations, high percentage of unemployment rate of 7.3%, living conditions of workers are constantly worsening because of bureaucrat-capitalists, low wages, and poor working conditions is still exist in the world of work in the country.   

According to Atty. Arnel Z. Dolendo on his interview, “anti-worker policies still precluded the workers in general to enjoy the lawful and humane working conditions. Workers should be united to hold the attention of this administration and take serious actions on many issues facing by the workers, perhaps, this is the right time for us to work together and be more aggressive”.

“We cannot let our future and our next generation to put in the hands of this current government. We can start and use this kind of mobilization protest to call the interest of all working people to take their part in calling for corrective change in our society. It is better to do something than doing nothing” he added.
