Sen. Francis Tolentino on Sunday said tax incentives should be given to companies who allow their employees to work from home to help them cover the cost of electricity and Internet connection.

According to Tolentino, he plans to file such measure as he projects the work-from-home scheme to stay for a longer period of time even after the COVID-19 pandemic.

“Yung ating mga employer – whether private or government –nakatipid din sila, kasi dahil wala nang airconditioning sa opisina, wala nang nagco-computer sa opisina ,” Tolentino explained in an interview over GMANews TV.Besides, he said, employers would find it difficult if their workers had their electricity disconnected as this will also affect their work performance.

Tolentino also said the bill will cover those who are self-employed as he seeks a bigger incentive for employees who are working from home who wish to deduct their electricity expenses under their net income.

I-push mo yan SenTol. Makakatulong yan sa mga manggagawang work from home.

Huh?! TAX-INCENTIVE FOR THOSE WORKING ON-SITE DESPITE THE RISK AND TRANSPORTATION DIFFICULTIES! WORK FROM HOME people already saved a lot of money. This congreeman have poor analytical & psychological skills.

Nothing like kicking people when they're down. 50+ thousand people infected and you talk about taxes? You keep causing needless suffering for a peso. Tells me what you really think is important to you. Breathing people to take from. Nothing more.

No penalities should be charged on any tax to be paid till the country recovers. Any lawmaker willing to champion that for the benefit of the people?
