WFH arrangement extended for ecozone BPO firms

The Philippine Economic Zone Authority (Peza) allowed the Information Technology-Business Process Management (IT-BPM) industry to continue earning 90 per cent of their revenues from work-from-home arrangements until September next year.
According to Memorandum Circular No. 2020-049, the Peza board approved the resolution “in response to requests from Peza ecozone IT enterprises.” This will remain effective until September 12, 2021, when the state of national calamity in the country is scheduled to end.
“With sound economic and legal policies, we must continue to do our best to keep these companies in our country despite the present uncertainties,” Peza Director General Charito Plaza said in a statement released on Tuesday.
