Introduction

International Labour Organization (ILO) is the specialized UN agency for the world of work. It sets international labour standards, promotes rights at work and encourages decent employment opportunities, the enhancement of social protection and the strengthening of dialogue on work-related issues. ILO is the only tripartite UN agency bringing together governments, employers', and workers' representatives.

The ILO holds the Country Office in the Philippines since 1970. Its office premise is located in the centre of Makati business district of Metro Manila. The ILO supports the Philippines in achieving its goal of sustainable and inclusive growth through decent work. The Decent Work Country Programme serves as a tool for delivery based on the following priorities: i) Productive, remunerative, freely chosen and sustainable work and employment opportunities are available for all Filipinos willing to work. ii) Improved labour market governance ensures respect for all rights at work, including fundamental principles and rights at work, international labour standards and human rights. Iii) Equitable social protection is available and accessible to all. To help realize these, the Office helps strengthen the institutional capacities of workers' and employers' organizations as well as the overall capacity of the country to ratify and apply international labour standards.

The Country Office is supported by a pool of technical specialists mostly pooled in the Decent Work Technical Support Team for East and South-East Asia and the Pacific housed in the ILO Regional Office for Asia and the Pacific in Bangkok, except for the Enterprise Development Specialist resident in the Philippines. The Global Centre on Digital Wages for Decent Work is hosted in the ILO Social Finance Programme, at the Enterprises Department in ILO Geneva and will provide technical support.

The Global Centre on Digital Wages for Decent Work was established in 2020 to accelerate the transition from cash to responsible digital wage payments through research, evidence-based advocacy, capacity building of both employers and workers, and the development of inclusive digital payment ecosystems. The Global Centre seeks to enable millions of male and female workers around the world to receive their correct wages, paid digitally into bank accounts or mobile money wallets and make the most out of them for better resilience and economic opportunities. The interventions enable enterprises in various economic sectors to better respect workers' rights and formalize employment, and to become more productive and to grow.

.

The Global Centre has country level interventions in Cambodia, Indonesia, Philippines and Peru. In the Philippines, according to the 2021 Financial Inclusion Survey of the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas, salaries in the private sector were still received in cash by 70 per cent of their payees. The project engages the Employers' Confederation of the Philippines (ECOP), Department of Labour and Employment, Department of Trade and Industry, Bangko Sentral Ng Pilipinas, labour groups such as the Trade Union Congress of the Philippines, associations of financial and payroll service providers and others to address the gap and advance the agenda. Notably, in cooperation with ECOP, the project has co-organized a series of awareness raising webinars and engagement meetings to identify challenges faced by enterprises and workers and identify solutions. It also adapted and introduced its training programme on responsible wage digitization for MSMEs, by training trainers who have subsequently delivered the training to MSMEs. The project is monitoring changes at enterprise level and provides support when needed. The first phase of the project in the Philippines has raised the profile of digital wages and demonstrated that it can be an effective tool to further digitalize SMEs, boost account ownership among workers, and promote formalization. The achievements need to be sustained and scaled up for the benefits of enterprises and workers. The Global Centre, in collaboration with its partners, is exploring strategies to facilitate the widespread adoption of digital wage payments. The primary goal of the project's second phase will be to refine and implement these strategies.
