00:00The new year of households in Metro Manila and Northern Mindanao is better
00:06because of the increased salary.
00:08How much? Let's find out with Mark Salazar.
00:14Under the leadership of the Regional Tripartite Wage and Productivity Board of Metro Manila and Northern Mindanao,
00:20households in their regions will receive an increased salary.
00:25In Metro Manila, the minimum wage of households is already P7,000 per month
00:30from the current P6,500.
00:33This is effective on January 4.
00:36In Northern Mindanao, from the previous P5,000,
00:39the minimum wage of households will be P6,000 from January 12.
00:44In the statement of the Department of Labor yesterday,
00:47it encouraged the other regional wage boards to feel the impact of the economy on the workers
00:54so that the wages will not be left behind.
00:57There's a story about Arlene Royales who has been working in Quezon City for six years
01:03and has two children who are studying in Zamboanga.
01:06Even if the minimum wage of households is P7,000, they will still be left behind.
01:12It's expensive now. It's expensive. It's not like before.
01:17You can buy a kilo of rice for P100.
01:24Now, you can't afford to spend P100 for one day.
01:31It's a good thing that Arlene went to a family whose minimum wage is P10,000.
01:38Aside from her contribution to the SSS and PhilHealth, she also paid for it.
01:44It's high. I'm thankful to Sir because he raised my salary.
01:50At least, somehow, I'm able to provide for my children.
01:55I'm thankful because they're kind. That's why I stayed here.
02:01Malu Boribor has been a housekeeper in Metro Manila for six years.
02:05That's why she knows how hard it is to pay the P6,500 salary.
02:10It's still not enough because of the house's roof and electricity bill.
02:15Maybe P10,000 is enough.
02:20It's even harder for someone like Malu who is a housekeeper on call
02:24because she only earns P5,000 from the so-called cleaners.
02:29That's why she hasn't paid for the SSS and PhilHealth for a long time.
02:33It's still not enough, but it's still not enough.
02:37If it's not enough, I'll just buy more.
02:43Many of the housekeepers in Metro Manila just run away from the more difficult life in the province.
02:50I help my father and my parents.
02:54I'm the breadwinner. I plant rice.
02:58I'm not good enough to be a breadwinner.
03:03My dream is that when I have money, I will open a small calenderia in Zamboanga.
03:15The DOLE always encourages the housekeepers to follow the law in the SSS and PhilHealth.
03:22The SSS membership will provide the housekeepers with social pension, sickness, maternity and death and funeral benefits
03:31while PhilHealth will provide hospitalization, outpatient, surgical and maternity benefits.
03:38For GMA Integrated News, Mark Salazar.
