House Committee on Labor and Employment Chairman and 1-Pacman Party-list Rep. Enrico Pineda has castigated the Department of Labor and Employment–National Wages and Productivity Commission.
House Committee on Labor and Employment Chairman and 1-Pacman Party-list Rep. Enrico Pineda has castigated the Department of Labor and Employment–National Wages and Productivity Commission , claiming that they were being reactive instead of proactive in addressing the issue of minimum wage amid the seemingly unending fuel price surge.
“What we see here is that the NWPC is not proactive at all, I think you’re more reactive. The last time that we had a wage increase was in 2018 and in 2018 the price of galunggong was P140 [per kilo], so after four years the price of galunggong has already doubled. So that alone can speak for itself that the galunggong is not the poor man’s diet…. Minimum wage earners cannot afford it anymore,” said Pineda.
According to Sy, the wage boards could convene either following petitions from the community, or motu proprio.“Yung mga regional boards po when they receive the petition immediately po nag-convene na po …And as of this time, can I just commit to those boards who met motu proprio because I do not have the information at this time, what I do have are those regions with petitions,” said Sy.
