DOLE employees get P10K bonus from Noy
MANILA, Philippines - President Aquino yesterday announced a P10,000 anniversary bonus for the employees of the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE), citing their accomplishments throughout the year.
During DOLE’s 80th founding anniversary celebration at the Occupational Safety and Health Center in Quezon City, Aquino said he was happy to announce the extra bonus for DOLE employees that he approved in time for the occasion.
The President admitted that he even wanted to make the bonus P20,000 but the government could only give anniversary bonuses up to a certain amount.
He added that there might be a need to review the rule putting a cap on bonuses, especially if the agency’s performance has been meritorious such as that of the DOLE.
Aquino lauded the DOLE for facilitating employment services for workers displaced by calamities. – With Zinnia dela Peña
