The Trade Union Congress Party (TUCP Party List) was established to represent the interest of labor and workers in Congress through the party list system of representation. Recognizing the fact that the plight of the Filipino workers continue to worsen, TUCP is committed to challenge the biases of elite democracy as it strives to represent 40 million Filipino workers, their families and communities. Popular campaigns to create a critical mass to pass pro-labor laws of continues to be the main thrust of the Party even as it seeks to assist in unifying the labor movement through coalitions such as the NAGKAISA labor coalition.

With over 700,000 members nationwide, the TUCP Party List focused its legislative agenda on ensuring universal observance of the basic labor rights and so-called core labor standards which includes: 1) the effective abolition of child labor; 2) the elimination of discrimination in employment and occupation; 3) the elimination of all forms of compulsory labor; 4) upholding respect for freedom of association and the effective recognition of the right to collective bargaining; and 5) respect for the right of workers to undertake concerted action (boycott and strike).

Represented since the 14th Congress, the Party advocates legislation on peace in Mindanao and is pushing the creation of decent work for both the young out-of-school Muslims and Christians, the promotion of investments and jobs by using the peace dividend in Mindanao as a developmental launch pad. TUCP wants to reduce the price of electricity to attract investors to Mindanao. 

TUCP is also pushing for allied progressive concerns such as promoting economic equity; ensuring universal healthcare; defending women’s indigenous people’s rights; developing universal education; continuing agrarian reform; balancing rural and urban development; natural resources conservation along the lines of sustainable development; enhancing local autonomy; enacting electoral reform; and ensuring freedom of information.
