UST workers, students rally vs Manila ordinance on medical certificates
Workers and students protest outside the University of Santo Tomas on Aug. 9, 2024 against Manila City ordinance 8973, which requires workers to submit a health permit for their employment. Ugnayan ng mga Nagkakaisang Manggagawa ng UST Hospital President Donnel Siazon said this was redundant and infringed on workers' rights.

00:00We will shout the name of President Pinacuna!
00:08Long live Pinacuna!
00:10Long live Pinacuna!
00:12Long live Pinacuna!
00:14Long live Pinacuna!
00:16Right now in the U.S. there are already 1,000 workers.
00:19How can the entire population of Melinda
00:22if all of them will be removed from their jobs?
00:26That's why this headquarters of Pinacuna
00:28is not for the people
00:30and it's not just for the workers
00:35but it's for the residents of Melinda.
00:40As an end
00:42the workers of the University of Santo Tomas
00:47and the local government of Manila
00:50especially Mayor Lacuna
00:53should be reminded where he came from.
00:59As we said earlier
01:02the City Ordinance requires all the workers in Manila
01:05to comply with the ordinance
01:08that will give health clearance to all workers.
01:11In the U.S. hospitals, they do that to the workers.
01:14How many workers will be affected?
01:19Including hospitals and universities
01:21it will range to a little over 4,000 workers.
01:254,000 workers?
01:26We are worried about the students.
01:28Even now, we are worried that we will lose our professors.
01:34It's not just about the workers.
01:40Even our students will not be affected
01:44because of the health clearance.
