Book III — Conditions of Employment
Article 82
PD 442 · Labor Code of the PhilippinesELI5 guide available
ELI5— what this means for you
This article defines WHO is covered by working-hours protections (overtime, night differential, rest day pay) — and who is NOT. If you're excluded, these rules don't automatically apply. Managerial employees, field personnel, kasambahay, and piece-rate workers are the main exclusions.
Key point
Not everyone gets overtime pay. Confirm you're not in an excluded category.
