Salary Grade 2023 in the Philippines

Salary Grade is a system of salary classification used in the Philippines to determine the compensation of government employees. It is based on Executive Order No. 201 signed by former President Benigno Aquino III on February 19, 2016.

In 2019, President Rodrigo Duterte signed the Salary Standardization Law of 2019 (SSL 5) to increase the salary of government employees. The salary schedules of government workers will increase in four tranches every January from 2020 until 2023.

The Salary Grade system has 33 levels, with Salary Grade 1 being the lowest and Salary Grade 33 the highest. The Salary Grade of an employee determines their base pay, which is then complemented by other benefits such as allowances and bonuses.

There are also 8 steps for every salary grade. The 1st salary step is the minimum or hiring rate. The 2nd to 7th salary steps are the intermediate salary rates. The 8th step is the maximum salary rate.

The minimum salary for government employees with Salary Grade 1 in the Fourth tranche is Php 13,000 per month, while the maximum pay for employees with Salary Grade 33 is Php 419,144 per month.

The Salary Grade system also ensures that government employees are paid based on their qualifications and experience.

Overall, the Salary Grade system aims to provide fair and equitable compensation for government employees based on their skills, education, and experience.
