The labor department said the wage order was already affirmed by the National Wages and Productivity Commission on Tuesday, June 27.
The NWPC has also authorized the publication of the wage order on Friday, June 30. The wage hike will take effect 15 days from its publication or on Sunday, July 16.“About 1.5 million full-time wage and salary workers earning above the minimum wage may also indirectly benefit as a result of upward adjustments at the enterprise level arising from the correction of wage distortion,” DOLE said.
The last wage order for workers in Metro Manila private establishments took effect more than a year ago. Bagong Alyansang Makabayan Secretary General Renato Reyes said the wage hike was still small when weighed against the family living wage. “Ang liit ng dagdag sahod na P40. Ang family living wage ay P1,100. Kapag dinagdag ang P40, nasa P610 lang ang NCR wage, o kalahati lang ng nakabubuhay na sahod,” he said in a social media post.
