MANILA – The “no work, no pay” policy shall apply on Nov. 1 (All Saints’ Day) and Nov. 2 (All Souls’ Day), which are special non-working days.
The advisory signed by Labor Secretary Francis Tolentino noted that the principle will apply to employees who do not report to work, unless an existing company policy, practice or collective bargaining agreement provides otherwise.
On the other hand, workers who report for duty during the first eight hours are entitled to an additional 30 percent on top of their basic wage, resulting in 130 percent of their daily rate (basic wage x 130 percent).
Any overtime work beyond eight hours entitles the employee to an additional 30 percent premium on their special day hourly rate, calculated as the hourly rate of the basic wage multiplied by 130 percent, multiplied by 130 percent, and multiplied by the number of hours worked (hourly rate of the basic wage x 130 percent x 130 percent x number of hours worked).
If a special non-working day coincides with an employee’s scheduled rest day, working the first eight hours entitles them to a 50 percent premium on top of their basic wage, or 150 percent of their daily rate (basic wage x 150 percent).
Overtime performed beyond eight hours on a rest-day special non-working day requires an extra 30 percent on that day’s hourly rate, computed as the hourly rate of the basic wage multiplied by 150 percent, multiplied by 130 percent, and multiplied by the number of hours worked (hourly rate of the basic wage x 150 pervent x 130 percent x number of hours worked).
