Deputy Permanent Secretary of Labour Mr. Anurak Tossarat chaired the commencement of the training for the Ministry of Labour’s religious ceremonies at the Jompol P. Pibulsongkram conference room, which will take place from 28-30 March 2017. Labour Minister General Sirichai Distakul has continuously observed the importance of religion and its ceremonies, wanting to ensure that tradition is never lost. He said that the ministry’s workforce possessed great knowledge about practice and work, but still had limited expertise or understanding about religious ceremonies on different occasion such as Foundation’s Day, charitable events, philanthropic events and royal ceremonies. In carrying out religious ceremonies inaccurately, he said could result in a lack of credibility and was therefore crucial to ensure that all steps are correct. Mr. Anurak said that the training could offer new information and therefore urged participants to listen carefully so that such ceremonies could be carried out flawlessly in the future.
A total of 54 people took part in the training comprising 1 officer from the Minister’s Office, 13 from the Office of the Permanent Secretary, 10 from the Department of Employment, 10 from the Department of Skills Development, 10 from the Department of Labour Protection and Welfare and 10 from the Social Security Office.
