MANILA, Philippines — Workers who will be reporting for work during holidays in the month of June should be paid twice their regular daily pay, the Department of Labor and Employment (Dole) said Sunday. In June, the dates of June 5 and June 12 are declared regular holidays in celebration of Eid’l Fitr and Philippine Independence Day, respectively, the labor department said in a statement. The Dole said those who will report for work shall be paid 200 percent of their daily salary for the first eight hours. Meanwhile, those who worked overtime shall be paid an additional 30 percent of their hourly rate. If the holiday falls on a rest day, the labor department said workers who reported for work shall be paid an additional 30 percent of their basic wage of 200 percent. Further, if a worker rendered overtime work on a holiday that falls on a rest day, the worker shall be paid an additional 30 percent of their hourly rate on said day. Dole reminded employers that those who did not report for work on a holiday shall still receive 100 percent of their salary for that day. ) READ: ... source: www.inquirer.net
