WHEREAS, it is imperative for labor, management and government to aim for improvements in productivity and the quality of life within the context of the national development of government;

WHEREAS, harmonious and contractual labor-management relations can be enhanced through the formulation of "social compacts" to govern their relations in line with the principles of free collective bargaining;
NOW, THEREFORE, I, FERDINAND E. MARCOS, President of the New Republic of the Philippines, do hereby order and direct the Minister of Labor and Employment to actively encourage labor and management to conduct conferences and dialogues with the view to the conclusion of "social compacts" and the establishment of voluntary codes of ethics to govern the relationships between labor and management in all industries particularly those which are vital to the national economy through the machinery of industry-wide collective bargaining. The "social compacts" and the code of ethics governing labor relations shall complement and be suppletory to collective agreements between labor and management.
