+ January 27, 2021 EMPLOYERS in Central Visayas who have not yet complied with the existing minimum wage order since its effectivity early last year are mandated to conform with it and pay their employees salary differential.
Workers in the region whose employers did not conform to the prescribed minimum wage rates under Wage Order No. ROVII-22 are expected to get paid with their salary differential starting Jan. 5, 2020.
“Workers who were not paid with the correct daily wage based on the new minimum wage rates applicable in their area starting Jan. 5, 2020 should be able to receive the difference between their existing wage rates received and that of the new wage rates based on Wage Order No. VII-22,” said Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) 7 Regional Director Salome O.
