MANILA, Philippines, August 12 (Eagle News) — The Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) revealed that even though two years have already passed since the implementation of the “Kasambahay” Law, many employers still don’t follow said law and many domestic helpers remain unregistered in the SSS, PhilHealth and Pag-ibig.
