Hi, We would just like to clarify if the ABOVE minimum wage earners are also included for the salary increase as per DOLE order last June. 30, 2023? "The wage order is expected to directly benefit 1.1 million minimum wage earners in NCR. 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." Thank you
