Trade unions should play a stronger role in protecting workers' rights by helping them get hot-weather allowances, a labor rights expert said.
Few unions in corporations stand up for employees, and central, as well as local governments, should strive to get the allowances, said Chang Kai, director of Renmin University of China's Institute for Labor Relations Studies.
Workers should also unite under the trade unions and let the unions negotiate with employers, he said.
