D.FRONDA JR. Sept. 4, 2023, 10:05 a.m.

I was hired in a private school. The school doesn't issue an employment contract and appointment as of now resulting my salary is still on hold. I was started reporting already last August 15, 2023 up to the present. I am now working for 20 days. I already submitted all the required document that they need. My medical exam results is also good so that they ask me to report ASAP. I have also family to feed and I have a younger brother who still studying in college and I am the one to support his finances. Is this fair?

You asked for Compensation is On Hold. All businesses in the Philippines must comply with established labor laws and policies enforced by the DOLE. Article 103 of the Labor Code which requires employers to pay workers once every two weeks or twice a month. Employee paydays should fall after every 16 days. General rule is companies must follow the prescribed frequency for paying salaries. All issues arising from this may be raised with the DOLE Regional Office/Field Office having jurisdiction over your workplace. However, we advise you to resolve the matter with the company’s grievance committee of your company.
