13th Month Pay for Kasambahay

ARE DOMESTIC WORKERS COVERED BY THE 13TH-MONTH PAY LAW?

Previously not covered by the 13th month pay law are employers of household helpers and persons in the personal service of another in relation to such workers. However, RA 10361 is now explicit in its commandment that a domestic worker or Kasambahay is entitled to 13th month pay as provided for by law.
