How it's calculated

  1. The calculator shows the lowest and highest daily minimum in your region, across all sectors and areas.
  2. The monthly figure is the daily rate times the days you work. Daily minimums are for normal work of up to 8 hours a day.
  3. If you enter your own daily wage, it is compared with the lowest minimum of the region.

An example

In NCR, 22 working days at ₱755 come to ₱16,610 a month.

Frequently asked questions

What is the minimum wage in NCR?

₱755 a day for non-agriculture workers and ₱718 for agriculture, retail and service establishments with 15 workers or less, and manufacturers regularly employing less than 10 workers, under Wage Order No. NCR-28.

Why does my region show a range?

Wage orders set different rates by sector (agriculture or not), by the size of the business and, in some regions, by city or municipality.

Do minimum wage earners pay income tax?

No. The statutory minimum wage is exempt from income tax, together with the holiday pay, overtime pay, night shift differential and hazard pay of a minimum wage earner.

Wage orders cover all minimum wage earners in the private sector of the region, whatever their position or how they are paid. Domestic workers have their own monthly minimum.
