An Act to Protect and Promote the Rights of Public Transportation Workers, Appropriating Funds Therefor, and for Other Purposes
In plain language
The bill would treat public‑transport drivers and other staff as regular employees, guarantee them a living wage and standard labor benefits, ban the practice of paying a fixed “boundary” fee to vehicle owners, and set up health, insurance and mutual‑aid programs. It also creates a transport council and assigns the LTFRB (under the Department of Transportation) to implement and enforce the rules.
