The Department of Finance should extend the deadline for BPO companies seeking to transfer their registration from the PEZA to the Board of Investments to the end of January 2023—a move that aims to protect and generate work-from-home (WFH) jobs, House ways and means panel chairman Joey Salceda of Albay said Wednesday.
“Protecting work-from-home jobs is important. It’s good for reducing traffic. It’s good for solo parents and those who need to care for other at home,” Albay Rep. Joey Salceda said. File photo
The transfer to BOI allows more of the companies’ employees to work from home, unlike under PEZA, which requires a certain number of employees to work on-site. Salceda said that the work-from-home option is also a significant draw in for companies who may want to recruit from a more diverse talent pool.
