Second Tranche of Salary Standardization Law VI in 2025

The Department of Budget and Management (DBM) is set to roll out the second tranche of salary increases for government employees on January 1, 2025. This is part of the four-year salary adjustment plan under Executive Order No. 64, which was signed by President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. in 2024. The order, titled "Updating the Salary Schedule for Civilian Government Personnel and Authorizing the Grant of an Additional Allowance, and For Other Purposes," aims to enhance the compensation of government employees progressively from 2024 to 2027.

The 2025 increase continues the government’s commitment to ensure fair compensation for public sector workers. The salary adjustments under EO No. 64 are part of the Sixth Salary Standardization Law (SSL VI), reflecting the administration’s dedication to recognizing the vital roles of government personnel and improving their quality of life.
