Actually dpat 5 mos lang contract nya tapos ma eendo na xa, pero pinakiusapan sya na mag extend hanggang umabot sya ng 6 mos.. dpat regular na sya automatic db? pero ginawa pinaalis p rin sya at sinabi na irerecall na lang sya, inaayos na daw papers nya sa office.. di na po sya umasa kasi ganun naman lagi promise nila s mga nag end ang contract. d na rin sya nagreklamo sa labor regarding dun sa 6 mos na work nya yet d sya niregular.. she's just waiting for her last pay na sabi nila di aabutin ng 1 month pero until now, wla pa rin.. May 9 last day nya pero July 21 na wla p.. meron po ba law regarding dun sa last pay?

there is no direct law or regulation regarding last pay. i advice my clients that it should be released within a reasonable time after submission of all requirements for clearance. to me a reasonable time is 30 days.

she can give a letter to the employer stating that she has been waiting since 09 may and demand payment. if they do not comply, her recourse is to complaint at nlrc.
