Are field personnel legally entitled to receive standard holiday pay under the law?
According to the detailed rules governing Article 94 of the Labor Code of the Philippines, field personnel and certain unsupervised employees are explicitly exempted from holiday pay. This specific legal exclusion covers those whose actual time and precise work performance cannot be continuously supervised by the employer. It explicitly includes independent individuals engaged on a pure commission basis or those paid a fixed amount regardless of the time physically consumed. Because their actual working hours are completely indeterminate, calculating daily holiday pay becomes inherently impractical under the law. 15-May-26About Nicolas and De Vega Law Offices
