THE government is now studying giving a new round of assistance for companies struggling to pay the 13th month benefits of their workers, according to the Department of Labor and Employment .
“We are studying if we can give assistance or subsidy to companies, which are unable to comply with the 13th month law,” Laguesma said. “We are checking if the facility is still open and available and what’s the status of payment by those who were helped,” Laguesma told BusinessMirror in an SMS. DOLE said it is considering providing the support since it noted no company can be exempted from Presidential Decree 851, which grants the 13th month benefit for employees in the private sector.
