Hello Sir,

I was retrenched for the company to save money. I've been working with them for 11 years. They are giving me 1/2 month for every year of service. However, I read article 283 and it says "1 month or at least 1/2 month for every years of service, whichever is higher". Can I push my company to give me one because of the phrase "whichever is higher"? Thanks in advance for your time and reply.

Best Regards,
Jom

if retrenchment is done during a period where there are losses, then you will receive on 1/2 month per year

Thanks for the prompt reply. Would this be the gross or the net pay? If it is the gross, would it still be taxable?

mali basa mo sir.. ang sabi.. 1 month salar or 1/2 month salary for every year of service whichever is higher..

ibig sabihin.. kung naka serve ka nang 1 year.. ang makukuha mo eh 1 month salary.. kasi mas mataas yun sa 1/2 month salary x every year of service..

pero kung more than 1 year na.. 1/2 month's salary x years of service na.. kasi mas mataas yun sa 1 month salary..

so ang sinasabi nang batas.. ang minimum na makukuha mo eh 1 month salary..
