Employers and workers affected by the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) lockdown may avail of assistance from the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) and other government agencies to cushion them against the adverse impacts of the pandemic, according the DOLE Region 1 Director Nathaniel V. Lacambra.

Lacambra said all DOLE Field Offices in Region 1 were already coordinating with Public Employment Service Offices to disseminate information on the available interventions that the government could have for employers and workers in this time of crisis.

The advisory proposes the following FWAs that companies may implement: Reduction of workhours and/or workdays, where the normal workhours or workdays per week are reduced; Rotation of workers where employees are rotated or alternately provided work within the week; and Forced Leave where the employees are required to go on leave for several days or weeks utilizing their leave credits, if there are any.

They may also apply for unemployment benefit equivalent to 50 percent of their average monthly salary credit for a maximum of two months provided under Republic Act No. 11199 or Social Security Act of 2018.
