SENATE President Pro Tempore Jinggoy Estrada has urged employers of domestic workers in Metro Manila and the Caraga region to adhere to the wage increases that take effect this month.
'They also have personal needs that need to be addressed following the increase in the prices of goods and other expenses. Just like others who get paid daily, they also have the right to be given an increase in their monthly salary,' Estrada said in Filipino.
This change is based on Wage Order NCR-DW-05 issued by the Regional Tripartite Wages and Productivity Board on Dec. 12, 2024.The RTWPB in the Caraga region also approved an increase of P1,000 for domestic workers, raising their minimum monthly wage to P6,000 effective Jan. 12, 2025.'These wage increases affirm our nation's dedication to uplifting the quality of life for our kasambahay, who play a vital role in countless Filipino households,' said Estrada.
