Prime Minister of Mongolia Zandanshatar Gombojav received the President of the Confederation of Mongolian Trade Unions (CMTU), Tamir Enkhbaatar, and other representatives.
Prime Minister Zandanshatar Gombojav underscored, "Social justice must move from slogan to practice through full implementation of the Tripartite Agreement on Labor and Social Partnership mechanism to support workers and protect their interests. The reason for re-emphasizing the Tripartite Agreement is the past case of misappropriation of the money accumulated from employer and employee social insurance contributions. Cases of such irresponsible misconduct are many; thus, the current arrangement of the partnership must be updated and enforced with stronger oversight."
The Prime Minister stressed the need for establishing a council against corruption with citizen and trade union participation to monitor implementation of the agreement. Mentioning it is time to eliminate bribery, favoritism, politicization, and outdated practices from civil service, Prime Minister Zandanshatar Gombojav proposed implementing a civil service attestation in cooperation with the CMTU and the Civil Service Council, incorporating performance‑based evaluations, incentives, and pay for honest and diligent employees. The Prime Minister instructed relevant officials to assess and evaluate implementation of the National Tripartite Agreement on Labor and Social Partnership for 2023–2025 and submit the results before July 30, 2025.
The President of the CMTU, Tamir Enkhbaatar, requested the Government to revise Resolution No. 370 "On Actions to Develop Social Partnership" issued by the Government in 2013 and to issue binding directions for Ministries, Agencies, and Governors at all levels to implement it. Furthermore, E. Tamir called for a more effective system for union participation, receipt and consideration of worker proposals, and dispute resolution.
The President of the CMTU also emphasized the need to evaluate enforcement of the Labor Law, review related legislation, and strengthen certain regulations. Tamir Enkhbaatar stressed the importance of addressing and eliminating workplace sexual harassment and violence, considering Mongolia’s accession to the International Labour Organization Convention No. 190 on violence and harassment, and playing a leading role in revising the Social Insurance Law.
