Increase in the Personnel Economic Relief Allowance (PERA) of Teachers

Rep. France L. Castro of ACT Teacher Partylist together with her fellow lawmakers filed the House Bill No. 5991 or the "Personnel Economic Relief Allowance Granted to Government Employees to FivebThousand (5,000) and Appropriating Funds Therefor."

The Personnel Economic Relief Allowance (PERA) was first granted to government employees in 1991, in the amount of P500 per month. Joint Resolution 4, issued by the House of Representatives and the Senate on 17 June 2009, mandated that the P1,500 Additional Compensation and the P500 PERA, with a total of P2,000, shall thenceforth be collectively referred to as PERA.

The last adjustment of PERA was in 2009 or 11 years ago, a timely increase will therefore offer government personnel more substantial relief from the erosion of purchasing power of public sector salaries and wages due to inflation and increasing price of commodities and services. For this purpose, this bill proposes that the PERA be increased to P5,000
