This paper provides a valuable source of information on
legislations concerning workers’ non-wage benefits. It includes all statutes enacted before 1986 and those
promulgated during the Aquino administration.
The
study showed that the additional benefits granted during
the Aquino administration generally improved workers’
income and their standard of living, owing to the
non-inflationary characteristics of these measures.
However, it cautions that the extent to which these
measures will alter the workers’ standard of living is
commensurate with the workers’ efforts.
