Here’s how workers should be paid on Ninoy Aquino Day, says DOLE
The Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) clarified that the 'no work, no pay' principle will be enforced for Ninoy Aquino Day, observed as a special non-working holiday on August 21, 2025.
Employees who do not report for work on this special non-working day will not receive their salary for the day, unless their company has a favorable policy, practice, or collective bargaining agreement that grants payment.
Workers who report for duty on Ninoy Aquino Day will receive an additional 30% of their basic wage for the first eight hours of work.
For overtime work exceeding eight hours on the holiday, employees are entitled to an additional 30% of their hourly rate.
If the special non-working day falls on an employee's scheduled rest day, they will receive an additional 50% of their basic wage for the first eight hours of work.
Overtime work performed on a special non-working day that also coincides with an employee's rest day will be compensated with an additional 30% of the hourly rate.
