On Thursday, May 18, 2023, Dr.Sopon Pornchokchai, President, Agency for Real Estate Affairs (www.area.co.th) as an  Executive Director, Employers’ Confederation of Thailand participated at a workshop held by the International Labour Organization (ILO) on the Care Economy.  The following is a sharing from Dr.Sopon

 

By the way, the Care Economy: The care economy is growing as the demand for childcare and care for the elderly is increasing in all regions. It will thus create a great number of jobs in the coming years. However, care work across the world remains characterized by a void of benefits and protections, low wages or non-compensation, and exposure to physical, mental, and in some cases, sexual harm. It is clear that new solutions to care are needed on two fronts: in regards to the nature and provision of care policies and services, and the terms and conditions of care work.
