Endo (derived from "end-of-contract") refers to a short-term employment practice in the Philippines. It is a form of contractualization which involves companies giving workers temporary employment that lasts them less than six months and then terminating their employment just short of being regularized in order to skirt on the fees which come with regularization. Some examples of such benefits contractual workers do not get as compared to regularized workers are the benefits of having an employer-and-employee SSS, Philhealth, and Pag-ibig housing fund contribution, unpaid leaves, and a 13th-month pay, among others.

dbo:abstract
  • Endo (derived from "end-of-contract") refers to a short-term employment practice in the Philippines. It is a form of contractualization which involves companies giving workers temporary employment that lasts them less than six months and then terminating their employment just short of being regularized in order to skirt on the fees which come with regularization. Some examples of such benefits contractual workers do not get as compared to regularized workers are the benefits of having an employer-and-employee SSS, Philhealth, and Pag-ibig housing fund contribution, unpaid leaves, and a 13th-month pay, among others. Since the initial drafts of the Philippine Labor Code up until today, there has been no drastic action on contractualization. This topic on endo has been the subject of many debates under various presidencies, with each administration promising to end this exploitative labor practice and contributing no more than a minute change to the code. Stances on this issue are divided; there are some who point out how the practice is exploitative and illegal, while there are others who say contractualization is essential to economic growth, and others who also talk about how endo affects the workers who are subjected to it. After a long history where the practice has been made to remain legal, later revisions to Philippine labor laws were made to deem the practice illegal. Nonetheless, these revisions have remained controversial while the practice is still regularly employed by major companies in the Philippines to cheapen labor fees. (en)
