MANILA — Government workers across the Philippines are set to receive their year-end bonus and a P5,000 cash gift as part of their November salary package, the Department of Budget and Management confirmed over the weekend. The DBM said it has already released the necessary P82.998 billion in funding to cover the benefits, underscoring its commitment to timely disbursement.
In a statement, the DBM directed all government agencies to process the payments without delay, ensuring employees receive the combined compensation with their first salary installment this month. The year-end bonus and cash gift represent standard benefits distributed annually to the civil service workforce.
The DBM's proactive release of funds aims to prevent delays that have occasionally affected government employee compensation in previous years. Officials emphasized that agencies have sufficient resources to meet the payment timeline and urged prompt processing of the benefits.
