SINGAPORE: The union representing Lazada's workers has expressed disappointment at the company's latest retrenchment exercise, adding that it was not notified or consulted.
"The National Trades Union Congress (NTUC) and our affiliated union Food Drinks and Allied Workers Union (FDAWU) are deeply disappointed that Lazada has initiated a retrenchment exercise without notifying and consulting FDAWU, given that Lazada is unionised under FDAWU," said NTUC in a statement.
The FDAWU has written to Lazada stating that such a move is "unacceptable", and that the matter has been escalated to the Ministry of Manpower (MOM).
