The Public
Consultation on Wages was held by the Regional Tripartite Wages and
Productivity Board (RTWPB) VI of the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE)
at a resort in Boracay.
Employees and
management groups from different hotels and establishment in Boracay and the
province of Aklan attended.
Attendees were divided
into two (2) groups: the employee and management groups. The groups had their
own speakers and had the chance to present their points, and the points presented were
then discussed.
Meanwhile, according to
RTWPB VI Director Ponciano Ligutom, if employees would really like to have
salary increase at their workplace, the employees should think thoroughly about
the exact amount to be added if ever a salary increase is approved.
On the other hand,
according to a member of the RTWPB, the consultation on wage issues that was
held will still be talked about at the Board of Hearing of Region 6 since it is
a sensitive matter and sufficient basis is needed on why wage should be increased
especially in Boracay Island.
