CEBU CITY, Philippines—The chance for the labor force in Central Visayas to get a wage increase this year remains uncertain despite having two rounds of public consultations held in Cebu and
Joe Tumongha, labor sector representative in the Regional Tripartite Wages and Productivity Board in Central Visayas , said it is still a long way to go before the board will decide on whether or not a wage increase is feasible for the region.
The RTWPB-7 is chaired by Department of Labor and Employment Central Visayas Director Salome Siaton and co-chaired by the regional directors of the Central Visayas offices of the Department of Trade and Industry and the National Economic and Development Authority .In May 2019, the Cebu Labor Coalition filed a petition for P360.50 wage increase while the Associated Labor Union-Trade Union Congress of the Philippines is asking for a P386 wage hike.
“Sa Cebu City nga consultation, ang among masabot gyud kay dili unta ganahan ang side sa employers nga dunay increase. Kun duna man gani increase, okay lang tingali as long as dili 100 percent aning gipangayo,”Tumungha told CDN Digital in a phone interview.
