April 20, 2023 Dear Justine Charmaine Patricio, Thank you for your request dated Apr 18, 2023, 08:37:15 AM under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch. You asked for Rights to leave of absence. Employers in the Philippines are not legally required to provide paid or unpaid sick leave. They are only required to provide 5 days of service incentive leave, which can also be used for sick leave. The clear policy of the Labor Code of the Philippines is to grant Service Incentive Leave pay to workers in all private establishments subject to a few exceptions as. 1. Field Worker Personnel 2. Establishments with 9 workers or fewer. However, special laws such as Expanded Maternity Leave, Paternity Leave, Leave for VAWC, Solo Parent, and Special Leave under the Magna Carta of Women also grant leave of absence for these groups of people. Thank you. Respectfully, Mark Valeros FOI Receiving Officer
