Bayan Muna Hits Insufficient Salary Increase for Government Employees

“We are in the dark about whether this increase considered the genuine demands of our government workers for a living wage. The increase should raise the salary of low-level employees to a living wage, apply to all employees including those in local government and JOCOS workers, and set a National Minimum Wage of PHP 33,000 per month.”–Former BAYAN MUNA Rep. Ferdinand Gaite
