BAKIT EPEKTIBO NA DAGDAG-SAHOD?! PALIWANAG NATIN PARA IWAS KULONG AT MULTA!

LAHAT ng EMPLOYERS na HINDI pa rin NAGBABAYAD ng ₱60 DAGDAG-SAHOD mula JULY 25 ay nanganganib na MAKULONG at MAGMULTA nang sobra-sobra! dahil MATAGAL nang TAPOS ang 20-DAY TRO, WALANG INJUNCTION dahil WALANG ₱10 BILLION, at WALANG HADLANG sa PATULOY na WAGE HIKE IMPLEMENTATION ayon mismo sa DOLE at Office of the Solicitor General (OSG) sa kanilang MOTION FOR RECONSIDERATION kaya HINDI na VOLUNTARY kundi MANDATORY na ang pagbabayad ng DAGDAG-SAHOD at TAMANG MINIMUM WAGE!

TUCP also called on the ECOP to direct its member companies to comply with the wage order, noting that the business group has publicly expressed respect for the wage board’s decision and the integrity of the wage-setting process.

The group likewise urged DOLE to strictly enforce the wage order through labor inspections as directed under Administrative Order No. 264 issued by Labor Secretary Francis Tolentino, warning that failure to act against non-compliant employers would leave workers with no choice but to seek legal remedies.

The Trade Union Congress of the Philippines (TUCP) on Thursday warned that workers will pursue legal action against employers that continue to withhold

TUCP kasama ang iba pang labor groups, nanawagan sa employers na ipatupad ang P85 dagdag-sahod sa NCR
Nanawagan ang mga labor group sa mga employer sa Metro Manila na ipatupad ang P85 dagdag sa minimum wage, kabilang ang unang P60 tranche ng wage increase.

Ayon sa Trade Union Congress of the Philippines (TUCP), walang bisa umano ang preliminary injunction laban sa Wage Order No. NCR-27 dahil hindi naipaskil ng mga kumpanyang kumuwestiyon dito ang P10 bilyong bond na iniutos ng korte.

HOY DOLE! GAWIN NIYO ANG TRABAHO NIYO! EPEKTIBO NA ANG DAGDAG-SAHOD!

WALANG PUMIPIGIL sa PAGPAPATUPAD ng ₱60 WAGE HIKE! Ayon mismo yan sa motion for reconsideration na inihain mismo ni DOLE Secretary Francis Tolentino noong August 17 upang TUTULAN ang application ng R-II Builders at Readycon para sa INJUNCTION na pinagbigyan ni Pasig RTC Branch 152 Judge Marie Joyce P. Manongsong. Mismong OFFICE OF THE SOLICITOR GENERAL (OSG) na ABOGADO ng GOBYERNO ang nangatwiran na, alinsunod sa RULES OF COURT, WALANG UMIIRAL na INJUNCTION dahil WALANG NAILAGAK na ₱10 BILLION PESOS na BOND! Kung ang posisyon mismo ng DOLE at OSG ay WALANG BISA ang PAGPIGIL sa pagpapatupad ng WAGE HIKE, DAPAT MAGLABAS ng bagong DEPARTMENT ORDER o ANNOUNCEMENT man lang para ipatupad ang NCR Wage Order No. 27! DAPAT nang HABULIN at SINGILIN ng DOLE at ng bawat manggagawa at ordinaryong Pilipino ang lahat ng mga employer, kumpanya, at mga boss sa trabaho na AYAW MAGBAYAD ng UMENTO!

TUCP SA RTWPB-NCR PUBLIC HEARING: DAGDAG-SAHOD, IPATUPAD AT ISABATAS SA BUONG BANSA!

Dumalo ang Trade Union Congress of the Philippines (TUCP) sa NWPC RTWPB-NCR Public Hearing on Minimum Wage Determination noong Setyembre 2, 2026 sa Quezon City.

Muling iginiit ng TUCP ang agarang pagpapatupad ng NCR Wage Order No. 27, partikular ang first tranche ₱60 dagdag-sahod na naging epektibo noong Hulyo 25, 2026, ngunit naharang dahil sa TRO na ipinataw ng Pasig RTC.
Binigyang-diin ng TUCP na walang dapat maging hadlang sa pagpapatupad ng dagdag-sahod. Dahil hindi naipost ang kinakailangang ₱10-bilyong bond para sa writ of preliminary injunction, dapat nang ipatupad ang wage order at matanggap ng mga manggagawa ang sahod na legal na nakalaan para sa kanila.

Higit sa lahat, naninindigan ang TUCP na hindi lamang sa Metro Manila dapat maramdaman ang dagdag-sahod. Isinusulong natin ang hindi bababa sa ₱200 dagdag-sahod na isabatas (HB No. 88) sa buong bansa bilang mahalagang hakbang tungo sa tunay na living wage para sa mga manggagawa at kanilang pamilya.
