The paper discusses,
within the context of social exclusion, issues pertaining
to poverty, access to employment, humane working
conditions and worker organizations/ representations.
While
the use of the concept of social exclusion is yet to be
formally introduced in the Philippines, the available
literature reveals that there have been attempts to
surface issues relating to social exclusion such as lack
of access, deprivation, marginalization, the
disadvantaged, the poor, etc. these have looked into
factors which cause individuals and/ or groups of people
to be excluded from goods, services, activities, and even
from their basic rights due to conditions prevailing in
their environment.
