so how do we justify the exemption of minimum wage earners from withholding tax to those above minimum when the net incomes between the two suddenly occasioned a disparity

 

it is sad but we can't and should't justify that. you see tax comp*tation is standard and would apply to all levels of income earners. in a nutshell, whatever income they have in the end the same system of comp*tation would be applied in arriving tax.

 

...isn't this another distortion, albeit non-monetary benefit?

 

technically there's a difference in figure but i think its not the way to gauge income distortion.

but that is where the problem lies...the said exemption applies only to minimum wage earners...i dont think there is an application to any of the other income levels...

 

just my two cents...

hello electronics enthusiast!!

 

pwedeng ba tayong mag share ng knowledege about PC Monitor repairing?.. Kung pwd pa i-repair yong mga monitor minor problems.

 

Post nyo rin ung mga service center na ok magpagawa ng Monitor at kung ok ang service fee.. Yong iba kasing service center TAGA ang repair cost.

 

Tanong ko na rin kung sino naka experience na ng Sampo Monitor na yelowish ang image at ung isa naman ay intemittent and pag dark ng image (di pokpok sa gilid ng monitor :grr: ). Baka kasi minor parts at repair lang ang remedy. At kung malaki gagastusin man magastos, at leat my idea na ako para ibenta ko na eto sa junk shop. :thumbsdownsmiley:

Good day to all HR practitioners,

It's my first time to work for unionized company and i was asked to be part of the management panel for CBA nego this year. My question is, is it really logical for union members to asked for a higher salary increase in proportion with the net income of the company? I work for a manufacturing company and we will lose our local competitiveness if we keep on giving high increases. In case of a CBA nego deadlock will DOLE look at financial income of the company or will just see if the proposed increase by mgt is acceptable or not.

you are thinking like a member of management...always remember that needs will always be increasing...the union always makes a proposal higher than the previous years...so much so if the union is progressive in leanings...such a proposal is without regard income of the company or dislocation if agreed to...such a proposal is based on an analysis of what is considered a living wage for a laborer...

 

such is the case in the philippines...that is why it is said around the int'l business community that it is cheaper to go to China as against maintaining a base in the Phils (labor costs, political struggle, peace and order and power problems)...

 

in case of a deadlock...each party would be required to submit a position paper oin the matter..in yyour position paper (management team) you will base your refusal of their demands on the projected income of the Company...there can also be a fiscal year analysis as against increasing costs (inflation, 2% increase in VAT, rising fuel prices, projected decrease in peso-dollar forex)...

 

so my friend, it is not based on logic, but on need...now it is but a question on whose need should prevail...

Hi, I am not sure if this is the correct thread but here goes. I resigned from a company I worked for over 2 years because there was just too much work. I however left in very good terms with this company.

 

I am now employed in a new company for 3 months but I must admit that I miss my old job. Two weeks ago, my former boss called me up and asked to meet with me. In the meeting, I was asked to come back to my previous job with a significant increase in salary and sort of a promotion. I was also told that they will be forwarding a formal offer letter so I could better decide.

 

Its been two weeks and no letter has yet to arrive. I am now confused. Can anyone give me some advice? What are the pros and cons given this situation? Is it possible that this is all just a sick joke? My current employer is also in the same industry as my previous employer although they are not direct competitors, if I were to go back to my previous employer, we will bump into each other eventually.

Hello All, especially to the HR pratitioners! :)

 

Newbie here. :)

Sa ngayon, wala pa kong question.

But like the generous peeps out here, I'm also willing to share knowledge and insights regarding the most important resource of all - Human Resource! :D

 

anyway, questions about leadership development, workforce development, succession management, hiring & selection, talent retention, assessment center, and training are most welcome. :)

 

 

pis yow!

Good afternoon HR practicioners,

I have a technician who happens to have frequent rheumatism attacks. Lagi na lang po siyang absent and hindi nakakkumpleto ng isang workweek. I work for a manufacturing company and his being absent certainly hurts my operations. I tried to see if there would be takers in other departments but all seem to refuse him due to this problem. Is it legal to relieve him of his duty on the basis of his health condition (rehumatism). What does labor law say about this situation.

 

regards,

JB

Have him undergo a full physical exam and find out what the doctor says.

 

ART. 284. Disease as ground for termination. - An employer may terminate the services of an employee who has been found to be suffering from any disease and whose continued employment is prohibited by law or is prejudicial to his health as well as to the health of his co-employees: Provided, That he is paid separation pay equivalent to at least one (1) month salary or to one-half (1/2) month salary for every year of service, whichever is greater, a fraction of at least six (6) months being considered as one (1) whole year.
