Within 24 hours, MCESD brought together its members twice, comprising of representatives of trade unions, employer and employee organisations, and businesses to discuss issues of national importance and evolving situations, including one held at the Prime Minister\u2019s office on the unfolding COVID situation on Friday.
\nMCESD\u2019s prime objective, as new MCESD chairperson James Pearsall put it during six hours of talks on COVID\u00a0between social partners and Government, is to further instill a sense of trust between social partners for the good of all citizens, without ignoring the fact that all stakeholders have to protect their organisation\u2019s interests.
\nA hard task but not an impossible one hence MCESD\u2019s role: to facilitate this change in thinking where social dialogue is concerned.
\n\u201cThe importance of having social partners meet under one roof and putting trust in each other is the only way forward; this will be MCESD\u2019s imminent mission until it is accomplished,\u201d Mr Pearsall highlighted.
\n\u201cFostering social dialogue plays a crucial role in promoting competitiveness and fairness and enhancing economic prosperity, along with social well-being,\u201d he continued.<\/p>\n
