The National Wages and Productivity Commission (NWPC) of the Department of Labor and Employment reminds all private establishments to submit their Annual Establishment Report on Wages (AERW) through the online portal annualwagereport.nwpc.dole.gov.ph.
Article 124 of the Labor Code, as amended by Republic Act No. 6727 or the Wage Rationalization Act, requires establishments to submit an annual report on “a verified itemized listing of their labor component, specifying the names of their workers and employees below the managerial level, including learners, apprentices and disabled/handicapped workers who were hired under the terms prescribed in the employment contracts, and their corresponding salaries and wages.”
For calendar year 2021, the report containing the aforementioned details as of 31 December 2021 shall be submitted online within the period 11 April 2022 to 30 June 2022. Thereafter, submission shall not be later than 31st of January of the following year (e.g. for calendar year 2022, submission shall not be later than 31 January 2023).
The centralized online submission of AERW is an integral part of the NWPC’s digitization initiatives to ensure a more efficient collection of administrative-based data on wages. It replaces the paper/physical submission of establishment report to the 16 Regional Tripartite Wages and Productivity Boards.
Other related concerns may be emailed to wage.report@produktiboatsahod.onmicrosoft.com. You may also contact the Regional Tripartite Wages and Productivity Board in your area.
