Book III — Conditions of Employment
Article 99
PD 442 · Labor Code of the PhilippinesELI5 guide available
ELI5— what this means for you
Your minimum wage is set by the Regional Tripartite Wages and Productivity Board for your specific region — not by Malacañang, not by your employer. NCR has the highest rate. Paying below the regional minimum is illegal.
Key point
Minimum wage = regional, not national. Check RTWPB issuances for your region.
