The Labour Minister continued that Prime Minister General Prayuth Chan-ocha had ordered the Ministry of Labour to care for the workers to have a good quality of life, as the workforce is a major part of the country’s economic development. In the past, many workers were affected by Covid-19. He assigned departments under the Ministry of Labour to conduct a survey among the workforce affected by Covid-19 with the goal of ensuring they directly benefit from this program. This will greatly reduce the burden of household expenses, allowing the workforce to have their own homes. There are about 1,000 units now. If the workforce demands more, the Ministry of Labour will coordinate the Ministry of Social Development for further allocation.
