𝐀𝐧 ₱𝟖𝟓 𝐰𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐥𝐲 𝐞𝐧𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐞𝐧𝐝 𝐚 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐧𝐲 𝐭𝐨 𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐭. 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐝𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐧𝐮𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐥 𝐮𝐬, 𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡?

Readycon Trading & Construction Corp. is hardly a marginal contractor struggling to keep the lights on. The Pasig-based company has been operating since 1988. It reported 𝟔𝟐𝟔 𝐞𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐨𝐲𝐞𝐞𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟒 and has an extensive record of infrastructure work and government contracting.

Available filing-derived data show that its 𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐫𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐮𝐞 𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐰 𝐛𝐲 𝟕𝟐.𝟓% 𝐢𝐧 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟒.

Readycon itself disclosed in its wage case that its salary expenses amounted to ₱𝟗𝟎.𝟐𝟔 𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐢𝐧 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟒 and ₱𝟗𝟔.𝟓 𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐢𝐧 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟓—an increase of roughly 𝟔.𝟗%. It also said that 𝟐𝟑.𝟓𝟗% 𝐨𝐟 𝐢𝐭𝐬 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐜𝐞 𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐬 𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐦𝐮𝐦 𝐰𝐚𝐠𝐞.

Now, these figures do not automatically prove that Readycon can absorb the additional ₱85 per day without difficulty. To make that conclusion responsibly, we would need its complete audited financial statements: profits, cash flow, liabilities, debt, and equity.

However, the reverse is also true.

Nothing in the available public evidence establishes that Readycon is financially incapable of paying its minimum-wage workers an additional ₱85 a day.

And that distinction matters.

When a company goes to court to stop a wage increase, the burden should not simply fall on workers to accept the familiar argument that higher wages are “too costly.” The financial capacity of the employer deserves the same scrutiny.

So perhaps the more useful question is not whether an additional ₱85 costs Readycon money. Of course it does.

The question is: 𝐃𝐨𝐞𝐬 𝐩𝐚𝐲𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐞𝐫𝐬 ₱𝟖𝟓 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐮𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐥𝐲 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐧𝐲’𝐬 𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐯𝐢𝐯𝐚𝐥—𝐨𝐫 𝐝𝐨𝐞𝐬 𝐢𝐭 𝐦𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐥𝐲 𝐫𝐞𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐫𝐞𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐧𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐰𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐜𝐭?

Pasigueños!

Sa pagsilang ng bagong taon, ipinagkaloob sa atin ng Senior Sto. Niño ang biyaya ng panibagong buhay at pag-asa. Bilang pasasalamat sa Kanyang kabutihan at kabanalan, sama-sama nating ipagdiwang ang 25th Bambino Grand Festival dito sa Lungsod ng Pasig!

Sa ilalim ng temang “Bambino de Pasig, Gabay at Inspirasyon ng mga Pasigueño sa Pagkakaisa at Paglilingkod,” magkakaroon ng Novena Mass tuwing 04:00PM sa Immaculate Conception Cathedral-Pasig (ICC-Pasig) simula bukas, Biyernes, January 9, 2026, hanggang sa January 17, 2026 (Sabado sa isang linggo).

Samantala, sa January 18, 2026 (Linggo), gaganapin ang Holy Mass sa parehong simbahan ng 01:00PM.

Ang nasabing misa ay susundan ng Bambino Grand Parade bandang 04:00PM, kung saan ang mga imahen ng Banal na Sanggol na si Hesus mula sa 13 parokya sa lungsod ay matutunghayan mula E. Caruncho Ave. hanggang ICC-Pasig.

Bilang panghuling aktibidad kaugnay ng Bambino Grand Festival 2026, ang Bambino Exhibit ay ilulunsad sa Pasig City Museum sa January 26, 2026. Bukas ang exhibit ng 02:30PM-08:00PM sa nasabing araw, habang 09:00AM-08:00PM naman mula January 27 - February 7, 2026.

Viva Bambino de Pasig!
