Labor Secretary Silvestre Bello III has submitted to President Rodrigo Duterte a list of recommendations.

From this list, the Chief Executive may choose which announcements he would like to make for Labor Day.

Labor Day is on May 1, Monday.

Bello says, “meron tayong sinabmit  na mga pronouncements pero sya na ang bahala kung ano ano ang kanyang ia-announce sa Araw ng Paggawa (we submitted some pronouncements but it is up to him to choose which ones he would like to announce on Labor Day).”

The Labor Secretary however stresses, the President will not declare any wage increase for laborers.

“Wala na sa kapangayarihan ng Pangulo na mag-set ng minimum wage. Nasa kongreso po yan (it is not within the power of the President to set the minimum wage. That is up to Congress),” Bello notes.
