SyCipLaw has authored the Philippine chapter of Lexology Panoramic: Labour & Employment 2026. The chapter was prepared by Senior Partner and Head of Employment and Immigration Department Leslie C. Dy and Partner Mark Kevin U. Dellosa.
The chapter provides an overview of Philippine labor and employment law framework, covering key areas such as worker representation, background checks on applicants, terms of employment, engagement of foreign workers, liability for acts of employees, employee taxation, intellectual property created in the course of employment, data protection, termination of employment, and labor disputes. It also highlights recent regulatory developments affecting employers and employees, including Department of Labor and Employment issuances on the revised Rules on Single Entry Approach, the prohibition on discrimination against women in employment, and updated occupational safety and health standards. In addition, it discusses the National Labor Relations Commission’s revised procedural requirements for the filing of complaints before Labor Arbiters.
