Davao City Sitting Sales Ladies

Before sales ladies sit down when their supervisor is not around but they are afraid to be caught. Now–Davao City sales ladies can sit when they feel tired of standing. They would not be afraid. The story has changed. It is their supervisor who will be afraid. Thanks to Councilor Edgar Ibuyan who has authored this gentle law and is approved now by the City Council. Violating employers will be fined from P1,000. to P5,000. or imprisonment up to six months. This law will help pregnant women and those that have cardio vascular problems. The fearsome varicose veins, looking like a distended and twisted vine in the legs, may be avoided. Davao City needs councilors like Ibuyan who could think what are good for their constituents. This is a pioneering law in the country. Others will copy Councilor Ibuyan’s authored law. Thanks Councilor Ibuyan. The city needs more humane laws like this one.
