Health and Wellness site November updates
The UA&P Employees' Health and Wellness site has been updated with the following content:
FlexiCare Health Bulletin
- Drug-Free Workplace: Substance Abuse Awareness
FMR and HRM Advisory: Required retroactive PhilHealth deductions
In compliance with the 1% increase in the mandated contributions to PhilHealth effective calendar year 2022, which was announced only in May 2022, all PhilHealth members and employers have been required to remit retroactive differential contributions by the end of 2022. In line with this, the retroactive contributions will be applied during the coming 16-30 November payroll, which will be credited on 28 November 2022. The required retroactive deductions (for January to May 2022 or 5 months worth) have been scheduled during this payroll period to coincide with the crediting of the 13th month pay so that the impact on employees’ take-home pay may be cushioned.
For questions, please email Ms. Amie Zuniga ([email protected]) or Ms. Tippy Benitez ([email protected]).
