Senate Bill No. 1396, a counterpart measure of HB 227, is pending with the Senate committees on Labor, Employment and Human Resources Development. READ:
With an overwhelming 271 votes, the House of Representatives approved House Bill 227 which aims to “recognize the role of caregivers in national development and to institute policies in the practice of the profession with the end in view of developing competent caregivers whose standards of professional service shall be excellent and globally competitive.”
The measure also lists several requirements that the employer may require prior to the execution of the contract, such as the following: training certificate, medical or health certificate, or a police or National Bureau of Investigation clearance. A caregiver who has rendered at least one year of service shall be entitled to an annual service incentive leave of at least five days with pay, based on Section 11. The same provision allows any unused portion of the annual leave to be carried over to the succeeding years, and unused leaves to be convertible to cash.
