Can self-employed individuals be covered by the ECP?
Based on Presidential Decree No. 626 of the Labor Code of the Philippines, self-employed workers are officially included. Active self-employed individuals who are compulsory SSS members fall securely under the program. This recent progressive expansion fully recognizes the growing gig economy and independent workforce. It successfully allows non-traditional workers to deeply access critical occupational hazard benefits. 18-May-26About Nicolas and De Vega Law Offices
