For customers of Remote, all employee payments will be made in two equal installments each month, on the 15th and the last working day of each calendar month, payable in arrears.
In the Philippines, the 13th-month salary is a mandatory statutory benefit equivalent to an extra month's salary, paid out at the end of November each year for Remote Philippines. If the employee leaves the employment before the end of November, eligible employees are entitled to receive the pro-rated 13th-month salary with the final pay. All rank-and-file employees who have worked for at least one month within the current calendar year are eligible, and it is calculated as one-twelfth of their total annual basic salary. Employees who quit, were fired, or were separated from their individual firms are still entitled to their 13th-month salary, as long as they worked for at least a month. The 13th-month pay is generally not taxable, except for amounts exceeding PHP 90,000, which are subject to tax.

We can help you get a new employee started in the Philippines fast. The minimum onboarding time we need is only 3 working days.
Our team ensures your employees are onboarded and paid as quickly as possible while keeping your business compliant with all local employment legislation. The minimum onboarding time begins after the employee submits all required information onto the Remote platform. The onboarding timeline is also dependent upon registration with local authorities.
For all non-nationals of the country of employment, the Right to Work assessment (if applicable) will add three extra days to the total time to onboard. There may be extra time required if we need to follow-up on the right to work assessment.
Please note, payroll cut-off dates can impact the actual first day of employment. Remote has a payroll cut-off date of the 10th of the month unless otherwise specified.

Philippines, like many other countries, treats self-employed individuals or contractors and full-time employees differently. Misclassification of contractors in Philippines may lead to fines and penalties for the offending company.
