MEDIA: what can freelance workers do to protect their rights and interests?

In 2023, from 39.22 million employed people in Thailand, as many as 52.19% or 20.46 million were self-employed. This was an increase from the previous year and the number of people freelancing is likely to continue to grow.

Yet, freelance workers often face difficulties such as slave contracts, delays in payment, unreasonable work modifications, or even not clearly stating remuneration due to the employer’s concerns. So, what do you need to know to protect yourself and protect your rights?

Join the discussion with IAS Advisory co-founding partner Mr Anuwat Ngamprasertkul in an episode of the popular evening TV programme Home Economy, hosted by veteran news anchor, reporter and journalist Dr Wit Sittivaekin.

This episode premiered on Wednesday 19th June 2024 on Thai PBS, Thailand’s public broadcasting service. Disclaimer: all content is owned by Thai PBS. Visit the Thai PBS website here: https://www.thaipbs.or.th/home
