webfact Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 Co-payment scheme planned for low-salaried tourism workers By The Nation Tourism and Sports Minister Phipat Ratchakitprakarn Tourism and Sports Minister Phipat Ratchakitprakarn said he will meet with Labour Minister Suchart Chomklin this week to seek ways of shielding the hard-hit tourism sector from fresh Covid-19 fallout. He said he might propose that the government co-pay the monthly salaries of employees in the sector. The planned measure will cover workers with salaries of up to Bt15,000, though the co-payment period has yet to be finalised. "A number of tourism business operators are suffering and might have to shut down. Helping them retain jobs is a move that must be taken immediately without waiting for the end of the outbreak," Phipat said.
