Local workers at wholesale market should have insurance, medical coverage - MTUC

The Malaysian Trades Union Congress (MTUC) suggests that local workers at the Kuala Lumpur Wholesale Market be provided with insurance and medical coverage, according to occupational risk factors based on safety, comfort and health.

MTUC president Abdul Halim Mansor said the government's efforts to encourage local youth to work in the wholesale market to reduce dependence on foreign workers was good.
