Dear eFOI user,
Thank you for your request under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch. You inquired about the non-compliance of your previous employer with Labor Advisory No. 6, s. 2020, which outlines the Guidelines on the Payment of Final Pay and Issuance of Certificate of Employment.
Regarding your concern, we recommend raising the issue with the DOLE Regional or Field Office that has jurisdiction over your previous workplace. In accordance with the DOLE advisory, the matter can be addressed through the Single Entry Approach (SEnA).
SEnA is an administrative mechanism designed to provide a speedy, impartial, inexpensive, and accessible settlement procedure for disputes arising from employer-employee relationships, preventing these issues from escalating into formal disputes.
We encourage you to visit or contact the nearest DOLE Regional or Field Office for assistance in resolving your concern.
Should you require further guidance, please don’t hesitate to reach out at DOLE Hotline 1349 or 8527-3000 loc 307
Thank you.
Respectfully,
Jann Kristine C. Barboza- FOI Receiving Officer
