Workers in Metro Manila to Get P30 Increase in Daily Wage

Workers in Metro Manila will probably get no more than P30 increase in their daily take home pay.

German Pacua, member of Regional Tripartite Wages and Productivity Board in Metro Manila, said workers are unlikely to get the P75 across-the-board increase they are demanding despite the continuing increase in prices of commodities.

“Based on records, workers have not gotten our full demand for salary increase and the highest granted by the board so far was only P30 and that was even given in two tranches,” Pascua disclosed.

“That is why personally, and as representative of workers in the board, I would already be willing to accept in our deliberation on Monday a P45 wage hike,” he added.

Pascua said the seven members of the wage board are hoping to come out with a new wage order soon, after they started deliberations on the amount of wage increase on Monday.

“We hope to come out with a sensible decision on Monday, but if the employers would insist on their P13 position I think the deliberation would take longer than expected,” he said.

The Trade Union Congress of the Philippines (TUCP), however, said their demand for pay increase is non-negotiable and that they would not accept anything lower than their previous demand of P75 across-the-board increase.
