\nCEBU CITY: The Regional Tripartite Wages and Productivity Board is now in the process of reviewing the prevailing wage for local domestic workers or ‘kasambahay’ in Cebu province.<\/p>\n
In a press statement, Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE)-Central Visayas Regional Director Lilia Estillore said the current wage order for kasambahay in Cebu reached its one-year period on June 13, 2023, and is now ripe for review.<\/p>\n
Estillore sits as the chair of the regional wage board.<\/p>\n
At present, domestic workers in the province’s chartered cities and first-class municipalities receive the minimum wage of PHP5,500 while those working in households in other municipalities are getting PHP4,500.<\/p>\n
The Board is inviting kasambahay and their employers to attend a public hearing on April 7 at the Belmont One in Calajoan, Minglanilla.<\/p>\n
‘The public hearing is part of the Board’s mandate to periodically review the minimum wages in the region and if warranted, to issue a wage order, adjusting the same,’ Estillore said.<\/p>\n
