ICYMI: Business permits of companies should not be renewed if they fail to give their workers their 13th-month pay, according to Senator Raffy Tulfo.

“Ganito na lang po, mag-issue po kayo ng warning sa lahat po ng mga employer na there will be dire consequences kapag hindi po naibigay ang 13th-month pay on time this year 2022,” Tulfo proposed to Labor Assistant Secretary Lennard Serrano.The neophyte senator likewise urged the Department of Labor and Employment to team up with local government units or Business Permit and Licensing Offices to make 13th-month payment a requirement for renewing a business permit.

Tulfo, however, lamented that advisories do not affect employers as long as those will not hurt them. Tulfo likewise pushed for creating a complaint hotline for employees who would not be able to receive their benefits.
