THE Employers' Consultative Association (ECA), in its 2025 Labour Day message, has proposed, “A new social contract for a resilient future: advancing decent work through dialogue.”

In a statement issued on June 18, the ECA said “overlapping disruptions have become the defining feature of our time” and called on all social partners to move beyond a business-as-usual mindset.

“As we observe Labour Day (June 19), the association calls on all social partners to recommit to dialogue and collaboration,” the ECA said, “as we collectively work toward developing a nation that fosters social justice and decent work for all our citizens.”
