Abstract

Kebajikan pekerja merupakan hak pekerja yang harus dibela dan dijaga yang dilakukan bersama oleh pihak kesatuan sekerja demi keharmonian sesebuah organisasi. Sebagai contohnya, bantuan kewangan seperti pencen, bayaran sakit dan elaun, penjagaan kesihatan, pendidikan serta latihan. Program yang diwujudkan adalah bertujuan untuk mempertingkatkan produktiviti pekerja, baucer makan tengah hari untuk pekerja dan perkhidmatan rekreasi seperti perbelanjaan untuk bercuti. Hal ini demikian kerana, kebajikan pekerja ini sangat penting dalam meningkatkan kualiti pekerja dan seterusnya meningkatkan hubungan dalam berkesatuan. Berdasarkan tema tersebut, kertas kerja ini akan menjelaskan kajian-kajian terdahulu berkaitan hubungan antara kebajikan pekerja dan peranan kesatuan sekerja yang melibatkan dua fasa iaitu fasa sebelum dan semasa pandemik COVID-19. Selain itu, objektif artikel ini adalah untuk menghuraikan konsep dan kepentingan kebajikan pekerja melalui perspektif para sarjana terhadap kesatuan sekerja pada masa kini. Berdasarkan analisis kajian lepas, kebajikan pekerja merupakan isu yang kerap dibincangkan dalam bersama dengan pihak majikan. Berdasarkan analisis tersebut, kajian ini menjelaskan bahawa hak kebajikan para pekerja akan dijaga jika kesatuan sekerja ini bergerak bersatu dalam memastikan hak kebajikan ini terpelihara. Oleh yang demikian kajian lanjut perlu dilakukan bagi mengenal pasti aspek kebajikan pekerja dan hubungannya dengan kesatuan sekerja.

 

Employee welfare is an employee's right that must be defended and taken care of by the trade union for the sake of the harmony of an organization. For example, financial assistance such as pensions, sick pay and allowances, health care, education and training. The program created is aimed at improving employee productivity, lunch vouchers for employees and recreational services such as vacation expenses. This is so because the welfare of these workers is very important in improving the quality of workers and further improving the relationship in the union. Based on the theme, this paper will explain previous studies related to the relationship between employee welfare and the role of trade unions involving two phases, namely the phase before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, the objective of this article is to explain the concept and importance of employee welfare through the perspective of scholars on trade unions today. Based on the analysis of previous studies, the welfare of workers is an issue that is often discussed together with employers. Based on that analysis, this study explains that the workers' welfare rights will be protected if the trade union works together to ensure that these welfare rights are preserved. Therefore, further research needs to be done to identify aspects of employee welfare and their relationship with trade unions.
