This will be among the topics lined up for the TAV orientation on May 25 spearheaded by the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) – Southern Leyte in coordination with the Regional Tripartite Wages and Productivity Board (RTWPB).
“ As embodied in DOLE Department Order #113, the labor government agency in the province will implement the minimum wage pay among the bus drivers and conductors in the locality,” Valuis disclosed.

The minimum wage pay is set at P253 per day by RTWPB in the region, she said.
