What is the deadline for paying the thirteenth-month pay?

Employers are legally required to pay the thirteenth-month pay not later than December 24 of every year. This strict deadline ensures that employees have additional funds available for the Christmas season. The timeline is a mandatory provision under the rules implementing Presidential Decree No. 851. Failure to meet this December 24 deadline constitutes a clear violation of Philippine labor standards. 17-May-26
