Money owed when your employer ends your job for a reason the law allows, like redundancy or closure.
Most useful for: Career shifter
- In real life
- 5 years at ₱30,000, let go for redundancy: one month per year, ₱150,000. For retrenchment: half a month per year, ₱75,000.
- Why it matters to you
- Resigning on your own usually doesn't come with it, unless your contract or company policy says so.
An explanation to help you read your pay, not a ruling on your case. Your employer, the agency or DOLE has the final word.
