Magtanong Kay Atty. Persida Acosta

Madalas na ang aming tanggapan ay nakatatanggap ng mga hiling na tulong legal hinggil sa claims sa kanilang kumpanya patungkol sa “final pay”.  Ano nga ba ang sinasabi ng ating Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) ukol sa usaping ito?


Noong ika-31 ng January 2020, inilabas ng DOLE ang Labor Advisory No. 06 Series of 2020, na may titulong “Guidelines on the Payment of Final Pay and Issuance of Certificate of Employment.” Ang advisory na ito ay inilabas alinsunod sa Articles 4, 103, 116 at 118 ng Labor Code of the Philippines, as amended, at Section 10, Rule XIV, Book V ng Omnibus Implementing Rules and Regulations ng nasabing batas. Kasama sa mga paksa ng advisory na ito ang tungkulin ng kumpanya na magbigay ng Certificate of Employment sa isang empleyado.


Ayon sa nabanggit na labor advisory, ang “final pay”, “last pay” o “back pay” ay tumutukoy sa kabuuan ng lahat ng sahod o anumang monetary benefits na matatanggap ng isang empleyado, anuman ang dahilan ng pagtatapos ng kanyang pagtatrabaho. Kasama, pero hindi limitado sa nasabing final pay ang mga sumusunod: 


  1. Unpaid earned salary of the employee;

  2. Cash conversion of unused Service Incentive Leave (SIL) pursuant to Article 95 of the Labor Code;

  3. Cash conversions of remaining unused vacation, sick or other leaves pursuant to a company policy, or individual or collective agreement, if applicable;

  4. Pro-rated 13th month pay pursuant to Presidential Decree No. 851 (PD 851);

  5. Separation pay pursuant to Articles 298-299 of the Labor Code, as renumbered, company policy, or individual or collective agreement if applicable;

  6. Retirement pay pursuant to Article 302 of the Labor Code, as renumbered, if applicable;

  7. Income tax claim for the excess of taxes withheld, if applicable;

  8. Other types of compensation stipulated in an individual or collective agreement, if any; and

  9. Cash bond/s or any kind of deposit/s due for return to the employee, if any.   


 Ang kuwenta ng 13th month pay ay one-twelfth (1/12) ng kabuuang suweldo ng isang empleyado sa loob ng isang calendar year. 


Maliban sa mga nabanggit na monetary benefits, na dapat ay mabayaran sa loob ng 30 araw mula sa araw ng separation o termination ng employment, ang isang empleyado, anumang uri ang dahilan ng pagtatapos ng kanyang pagtatrabaho, ay may karapatang mabigyan din ng “Certificate of Employment” sa loob ng tatlong araw mula sa oras na hiniling ito ng empleyado.  


Anumang isyu o usapin na lumabas nang dahil sa pagbabayad o may kaugnayan sa pagbabayad ng final pay o pagbibigay ng certificate of employment ay maaaring isampa sa pinakamalapit na DOLE Regional/Provincial/Field Offices na nakasasakop sa lugar kung saan nagtrabaho ang nagrereklamong empleyado para sa conciliation ayon sa kasalukuyang enforcement mechanism ng DOLE.
