What are the conditions for COVID-19 compensability under the ECP?
According to Presidential Decree No. 626 of the Labor Code of the Philippines, specific epidemiologic connections are required. There must be a very direct link based on occupational risk, like active healthcare work. Transmission must have strictly occurred directly in the workplace or while commuting. Tasks requiring highly frequent face-to-face public interactions also easily satisfy these compensability conditions. 18-May-26About Nicolas and De Vega Law Offices
