The 13th month, worked out from the law.
The 13th month pay is not one month's salary but one twelfth of a year's basic salary, so it is less if you joined during the year, left early, or had unpaid absences.
- Full year or part of one
- Enter a fixed salary and the months you worked, every month's pay separately when it changed, or the year's total if you already know it.
- Only basic salary counts
- Overtime, holiday pay, night differential, allowances and leave converted to cash are left out, and unpaid absences come off, as the guidelines say.
- The ₱90,000 limit
- Add any other bonuses to see whether the year's total stays inside the ₱90,000 that is tax-free, and how much is taxed if it does not.
Frequently asked questions
How is 13th month pay computed?
Add up the basic salary you earned from January to December, then divide by 12. On a fixed ₱25,000 a month for the whole year that is ₱300,000 ÷ 12 = ₱25,000. Overtime, allowances and other pay that is not basic salary is left out.
How much is the 13th month pay if I only worked part of the year?
One twelfth of what you earned in the months you worked. Seven months at ₱18,000 is ₱126,000, so the 13th month pay is ₱10,500. You need to have worked at least a month of the year to be owed it.
When must the 13th month pay be given?
On or before December 24. An employer may pay part of it earlier, such as half in June, as long as the whole amount is paid by then. If you resign or are let go, the pro-rated amount comes with your final pay.
Is the 13th month pay taxed?
Not up to ₱90,000. The 13th month and other bonuses together are tax-free up to ₱90,000 a year, and only the part above that is added to your taxable pay.
Who is entitled to 13th month pay?
Every rank-and-file employee in the private sector who worked at least a month in the year, whatever their position or employment status, including kasambahay. Those paid purely by commission, boundary or task, with no fixed wage, are not covered. Managers are not covered by the law, although many employers give it to them anyway.
