Labor problems<\/p>\n
From Suara Pembaruan<\/p>\n
Workers' demonstrations are on the increase. A demonstration
\nis always related to the problem of workers' survival, and as
\nsuch it concerns the issue of the minimum wage.<\/p>\n
As a social group, the workers are responsible for the
\nsurvival of their families and the society as a whole. They are
\nfully aware that being employed they can take care of themselves
\nand do not have to trouble other members of the society.<\/p>\n
This sense of responsibility serves as a strong motivation for
\nsomeone to work in order to be able to satisfy the basic needs of
\nlife which in turn provide a feeling of security. This security
\nwill be upset if injustice prevails in the working environment.
\nPractices of injustice may lead to instability in the workers'
\nminds which influences their morale, even though productivity is
\nstill maintained. In such a condition the workers' emotion is
\nprone to agitation.<\/p>\n
The problems of workers cannot be settled through mathematics
\nor military power, but by applying human values and improving
\nthe societal mentality. In other words, a sociological approach
\nis the best way to solve human problems.<\/p>\n
