PH BPOs eye long-term remote work strategy
Business process outsourcing (BPO) companies in the Philippines are pushing for an extension of the emergency authorization to allow employees to continue working from home.
“India has been driving a lot of flexibility not just in general rules and regulations in the way their businesses will be supported particularly in IT-BPM but also in work from home,” said Information Technology and Business Process Association of the Philippines (IBPAP) chairman Benedict Hernandez, who emphasized that the Philippines need a stable solution to be as competitive.
Hernandez said that the authorization can be extended under the guidelines of a recently signed law that writes out corporate income tax and reforms the tax incentives system for firms within economic zones, which will expire in September.
