Abstract: The Philippines had an overall GCPI score of 7.23 (out of 10) placing it in the higher end of the “Maturing” Index Band. Its strong performance was buoyed by its high levels of protection for domestic workers in Sub-Index B and strong maternity leave provisions in Sub-Index A. However, inadequate provisions for dependent care leave and flexible work arrangements presented a significant shortfall in its performance in Sub-Index A. In 2012, the Philippines was the second country to ratify C189, the ILO Domestic Workers Convention, subsequently passing the Domestic Workers Act in 2013. Still, the Philippines has much room for improvement in its implementation and enforcement of domestic worker protections, despite its relatively strong performance in Sub-Index B.
