I. Introduction
The propose of the study is to determine the feasibility of opening a quick service
restaurant. Initially the plan was to conduct a business plan which is the Crave Bistro
Cafe that located in Cavite area but after a careful considerating carrying out a feasibility
study was seen to be more viable study on this subject
Crave bistro is a cozy bistro coffeeshops, the business is a sole proprietorship operating
under entrepreneur Kath gatchalian. Crave is located in Cavite area. The restaurant
features a full menu with affordable prices. Our dishes is more on Asian cuisine that
everyone must enjoy it.
We named our bistro crave because we assure that our customers will feel crave once
they see our foods, we believe every meal is special, and that’s why we prepare and serve
every dish with care,pride and passion. Dining in our bistro cafe should be special and it
should make our customers special.
The main reason why we started a business is to have investment and extra income.
Nowadays, restaurants have always played an essential role in the business, social,
intellectual and artistic life of a thriving society. The strength of our restaurant is it has
affordable prices. We have free facilities and parking spaces it is also accessible for the
customers because it is easy to find. The weaknesses of our restaurant is that competitors
can offer similar menu, poor service quality and management, and our restaurant has no
branches. The opportunities of our restaurant is to expand packaged offer, revise and
refresh the menu. And also the threats that we may encounter is that the larger
competitors get majority of market share and more famous brand name, price competition
with other restaurant and bad testimonials from the customers. But despite of these
negative situation we may encounter, what we could do is to pursue it with all our hearts
and give our best to make it possible.
The important of this study is to know how to operate a restaurant, how to manage and
the opportunity we might encounter. In our society restaurants have always played an
essential role in the business, social, intellectual and artistic life, the major events of life,
personal and professional, are celebrated in restaurants even if traditionally we do
cooking in house, but because they are preoccupied with work outside their homes, many
of them buy cooked food, have them delivered or just dine out. Because of today’s fast-
paced lifestyle, ready-to-cook and ready-to-eat meals have become greatly in demand.
The food service industry is sought after by a growing number of people who want to
have filling meals in the shortest time and at the most reasonable price.
Also it’s important to study and to know how our costumer fulfill their satisfaction of our
service because customer satisfaction is the measurement will help you increase revenue,
reduce churn, boost customer lifespan and create more advocates. Treat Customers Like
You Would Want to Be Treated , Remember that your customer wants to see the sunny
side of you and your business, so have your filter on and put yourself in their shoes.
Hotel and restaurant management success is based on the ability to understand the
psychological underpinnings of the hospitality business. The ability and personalities that
are suitable for different positions in restaurants because it is the key to the success of
these businesses. It’s also important that anyone employed in the restaurant management
field understands the importance of keeping up with the latest developments in the
industry. It is especially important to focus on innovations that will make you more
competitive in the areas where it matters.

General violations
1) Time and Temperature
Always keep cold foods below 40° F and hot foods above 140° F. When cooling
hot food down or warming up foods, do this as quickly as possible.
2) Food Storage
Do your best to keep similar items stored above and below each other, but if you
must store different items vertically, do it in this order from top to bottom:
1. Raw Vegetables
2. Cooked Vegetables
3. Cooked Meats
4. Cooked Seafood
5. Raw Seafood
6. Raw Beef
7. Raw Pork
8. Raw Chicken
3) Cross Contamination
Have hand wash stations on your cooking line and that cooks use the proper
utensils for each item.
4) Personal Sanitation
Make sure hands are washed with proper anti-bacterial soap and hot water,
scrubbing up to the elbows and under the nails with a nail brush for 20 seconds. A
common trick to make sure you’ve scrubbed for the right amount of time is to sing the
happy birthday song twice.
Ensure that cooks are in clean clothing that has been washed daily. In a perfect
world, they would change into a uniform at your facility, and then leave it at your facility
to cut down on bringing in external contaminants. Also, watch out for stagnant water.
5) Chemical Usage and Storage
Make sure operators and know how to properly sanitize their work space, not just
clean it. Too often I see cooks doing things wrong, then I check with management and
they don’t even know proper usage and procedures.
to work. Rest periods of short duration during working hours shall be counted as hours
worked.
MEAL PERIODS
The employees will be given not less than 60 minutes time-off for their regular meals.
During day shifts this is usually at 12:00pm
REHIRE
Eligibility for Rehire Employees who completed their company introductory period and
who were part of a reduction in force, as well as those employees who voluntarily
resigned, will be eligible for rehire as long as they had a satisfactory work record. Service
Restoration Rules for Eligible Employees If a former employee with less than one year’s
prior service is rehired, the employee will be considered a new employee and will not be
eligible for prior service recognition for seniority or benefits plan participation purposes.
If a former employee with more than one year’s prior service is rehired, the employee’s
seniority and eligibility to participate in company benefits plans will be bridged if the
employee is rehired and the period of prior company service exceeded the duration of the
period of absence. Service recognition will include prior service recognition for accrued
leave plans. If a former employee with more than one year’s prior service is rehired and
the duration of the period of absence exceeded the period of prior company service, the
employee will be considered a new employee and will not be eligible for prior service
recognition for seniority or benefits plan participation purposes.
RESIGNATION
The employee has the right to resign from his employment resulting in its termination.
Resignation is the voluntary act of an employee who is in a position where he believes
that personal reasons cannot be sacrificed in favor of the exigency of the service, and he
has no other choice but to disassociate himself from employment. Employment is
essentially contractual in nature. Thus, it requires mutuality of consent by and between
the employer and the employee. If the employee ”finds-himself in a situation where he
believes that personal reasons cannot be sacrificed in favor of the exigency of the service,
then he has no other choice but to disassociate himself from his employment.” Once
accepted, this results in the severance of the contract of employment. While the employee
has the right to resign, labor law requires that a 30-day written notice or a resignation
letter be served to the employer at least one month in advance. If the employee fails to
comply with the 30-day notice rule, he may be held liable for damages suffered by the
employer. However, the employee does not need to comply with the 30-day notice rule in
the following situations:
1.Serious insult by the employer or his representative on the honor and person of the
employee
2.Inhuman and unbearable treatment accorded the employee by the employer or his
representative
3.Commission of a crime or offense by the employer or his representative against the
person of the employee or any of the immediate members of his family and
4.Other causes analogous to any of the foregoing.
ATTENDANDE POLICY
Our employee attendance policy outlines our expectations about our employees’ coming
to work. Being punctual when coming to work helps maintain efficiency in our
workplace. This company attendance policy applies to all nonexempt employees
regardless of position or type of employment. Most employees need to collaborate with
their colleagues to do their job. To make this collaboration easier, we expect you to be
punctual and follow the schedule you and your manager have agreed on. If you are absent
or late on occasion, you should have a good reason. Being consistently tardy or absent
can cause problems to your colleagues who may have to shoulder your work. This
behavior may bring about a “bad attendance” record and you may need to go through
progressive discipline.
Unforeseen absences
-If you can’t come in to work one day, notify your manager as soon as possible. If your
manager is in a different time zone, contact HR instead. Afterwards, you should draw
from your remaining PTO or sick leave to cover this absence. Please record this in our
[HR software] as quickly as possible. Unexcused or unreported absence for more than
three days will be considered job abandonment. If you need to leave work early one day,
inform your manager. We will understand if you have good reasons for being absent,
even if you don’t report it. Those reasons usually involve serious accidents and family or
acute medical emergencies. We may ask you to bring us doctor’s notes or other
verification. In these cases, we will record your absence as “excused.”
The following list, although not exhaustive, includes reasons that we don’t consider
excused absence:
1.Waking up late.
2. Stopping on the way to work for personal reasons.
Good attendance
-Employees who have less than [three incidents] of absenteeism or tardiness in a year
will receive an additional paid day off for next year. You have a good attendance record
when you:
1.Report consistently to work.
2.Come to work at the scheduled shift start time.
3.Leave work at the scheduled shift end time (except when paid overtime is required.)
4.Remaining at work during working hours (excluding breaks.)
5.Take breaks that don’t exceed an expected length.
6.Notify your manager when you need to be absent or late. 7.Be absent or late with good
reasons only.
LEAVE OF ABSENCE
This type of absence is becoming increasingly prevalent and can have a major impact on
a company’s performance – but where does this leave the employer? If an employer
believes the employee is likely to take unauthorised leave then they can take appropriate
action. The employee’s line manager should have an informal meeting with them, once
again explaining the operational reasons why this request could not be granted and if
possible, to agree on an alternative date for this leave to be taken. The employer can write
a follow-up letter to the employee in question, reiterating company policy to them and
reminding them that their annual leave request has not been authorised on the requested
dates. A key advantage of sending this letter is that it serves as a reasonable management
instruction to the employee that they’re required to work during the period they requested
to take leave. If the employee fails to adhere to this instruction, their absence will be
considered unauthorised.
The procedures on how things should be done on the different processes and
systems in the Company are communicated to employees through the Company standard
operating procedures, memorandums and other communication vehicles available in the
Company. Employees are expected to be consistent in adhering to these procedures in
order to maintain the standard set by the Company.

such as cleaning the freezers. Finally, there are some cleaning jobs that can happen
quarterly or even yearly, like cleaning the hood of the kitchen grill.
2.) CLEANLINESS
Policy: The cleanliness and sanitation of the Crave Bistro Café is to be maintained.
Procedure: Employees involved in the service of food to customers in the Swiss
Café, Restaurant & Lounge must observe the following procedures to ensure its
safety:
Before service:
o Clean and sanitize tables.
o Immediately wipe up spills as they occur. Use designated cloths and appropriate
sanitizing solution.
After service:
o Remove unused flatware after Service, clean and sanitize.
o If tables are covered with linen, remove after Service and replace with clean
tablecloths. Soiled cloth linen, tablecloths, and napkins should be taken to the
laundry and kept separate from other linen used in the establishment, such as
custodial towels. Treat stains promptly.
o If no tablecloth is used, remove all materials (salt and pepper shakers, sweetener,
etc.) clean and sanitize tables. Replace materials and reset tables.
o Wipe table seats if necessary after table tops have been cleaned and sanitized.
Kitchen Area
We sanitize equipment and surfaces that have come in contact with food and kitchen
instruments and must do so after each task. The state or local health department
establishes the proper types of disinfectants and sanitizers. We utilize when washing
dishes, as well as the proper storage techniques for food that might contain bloodborne
pathogens. Kitchen items such as cutting boards, blenders, grills and countertops should
also be disinfected.
Dining Area
We properly clean dining areas by thoroughly sanitizing the surface areas customer's
come in contact with, such as bar tops, table tops and chairs. Surface area cleaning
should be done with clean towels that have not been used on surfaces in other areas of
the restaurant, such as the restroom or kitchen. We also ensure condiment bottles and
menus are disinfected regularly.
Floors
We sweep and mop near the restaurant's entrances and exits frequently as well as
underneath booths and tables to keep these areas clean. Regular deep cleaning with
soap, water and liquid bleach help remove soil buildup in tile grout. If a spill occurs, we
promptly section off the area, clean up the spill and allow it to dry to avoid a slip-and-fall
incident.
Restrooms
To properly clean the restroom, we scrub toilet bowls and seats, as well as the floor
around the toilets. All door handles and sink faucets must be disinfected. Surface areas
around sinks should be disinfected and dried. Dispensers for soap, paper towels and
toilet paper should also be fully stocked. We also monitor restrooms frequently to
ensure they do not require attention.
Customers should be advised how long a service will take to achieve the expected
outcomes. If a delay occurs the customer will be advised and staff will take action to
overcome any possible delays.
• Controll access into the building by locking all exterior entrances, including those to
basement and shipping/recieving areas, without conflicting with life safety and fire code
requirements.
• Control access to air intakes of heating,ventilation, and iar conditioning system to
prevent attempts to introduce contaminants into the system.
• Provide adequate illumination for the building, including parking lots and garages.
• Consider installing security film on accessible windows that face public streets and
parking areas.
Check to make sure that all food waste and rubbish are stored in rodent and
insect-proof containers with tight fitting lids.
Be sure temperatures of all cooling equipment are taken and recorded
routinely to ensure proper calibration of thermometers and proper equipment
operation. See Temperature Record for Freezer, Temperature Record for
Freezer/Refrigerators, and Temperature Record for Refrigerator.
Be sure temperatures of all heating equipment are taken and recorded
routinely to ensure proper functioning and thermometer calibration.
Record temperatures of holding equipment at least daily to ensure proper
functioning and calibration.
Monitor the maintenance of ventilation systems, ensuring that systems are
adequate and regularly cleaned according to the recommended schedule.
Procedure: Employees who use equipment will be responsible for washing and
sanitizing removable parts after each use. Equipment that handles potentially hazardous
foods is cleaned at least every eight hours.
Steps include:
Disassemble removable parts from equipment.
Use the three-sink method to wash, rinse, and sanitize all parts. Verify sanitizer
concentration for each meal period and as necessary per policy.
Wash, rinse, and sanitize all food contact surfaces of the equipment that are
stationary.
Allow all parts of the equipment to air dry.
Re-assemble the equipment.
7.) PRODUCT
HANDLING OF FOOD PROCEDURES
5.1 PURCHASING OF FOOD
Policy: Food is purchased only from approved vendors to assure the safety of
food served to customers.
Procedure: Employees purchasing food must:
Understand regulations for specific foods:
Purchase packaged or processed food only from suppliers who receive their
products from licensed reputable purveyors and manufacturers, who adhere to
good manufacturing practices and who are HACCP certified
Fresh produce may be purchased directly from local growers as there is no
inspection process for these non-potentially hazardous foods (with exception of
melons and fresh alfalfa sprouts). When making direct purchases, buyers should
ensure packages are clean and will maintain the integrity of the food item, as
communicated through product specifications.
Meat and fresh shell eggs may be purchased from local licensed producers, but
because these foods are considered potentially hazardous, the products must be
inspected for safety. An inspected shield should be on the package. Meat and
fish may be purchased by the restaurant at a specialized and reliable local trader
after approval from the Crave Bistro Café Manager
Purchase pasteurized dairy products.
Visit approved vendors to ensure that they maintain clean warehouses adhere
to safe storage and handling practices and have a secure facility to minimize
intentional contamination.
Observe the delivery vehicles to ensure that they are clean and temperatures are
controlled.
Request photo ID badge of delivery person, when you don’t trust is or have
complaints
Use written product specifications to ensure that the vendor knows what is to
be delivered.
The kitchen manager will:
Develop and implement written product specifications to ensure products
purchased consistently meet restaurant expectations.
Coordinate delivery times with vendors/suppliers to ensure that deliveries are
made when they can be stored immediately. Schedule receiving times when
product quantity and quality can be checked, including product temperatures.
Review orders and delivery information to ensure orders and product
specifications are being met.
Check at random the temperature of three different refrigerated food items for
each delivery. Record date, employee initials, vendor, product name, and
temperature of these products in the Receiving Temperature Log.
Place foods in the proper storage area (cooler or freezer) quickly to avoid
potential bacterial growth. Proper cooler temperatures are 5º Celsius or lower.
Proper deep chill storage temperatures are from 0º Celsius to -3,5º Celsius or
below. Proper freezer temperatures are -18º Celsius.
Use First In First Out (FIFO) inventory rotation of products in all storage areas to
assure that the oldest products are used first. Products with the earliest
use-by or expiration dates are stored in front of products with later dates. Mixing
old food with new food is not acceptable.
Keep products in original package until used.
Proper dry storage temperatures are between 10º Celsius and 21º Celsius at 50
to 60 percent humidity.
Policy: All hot food will be held hot (above 57º Celsius) and cold food will be held
cold (below 5º Celsius). Temperatures of food will be taken routinely to ensure
that proper temperatures are maintained through holding to ensure the safety
of the food served to customers. Any conflict between food quality and food
safety must always be decided in favor of food safety. When in doubt about the
safety of food, throw it out.
Procedure: Employees involved in the production or service of food must:
Holding Hot Food:
Prepare and cook only as much food as is needed. Batch cooking is ideal for
maintaining food temperature and quality.
Use hot-holding equipment that can keep hot food at 57º Celsius or higher.
Follow manufacturer’s instructions in using hot-holding equipment. [NOTE:
Customize your SOP by including instructions. For example, you may need to
indicate that the steam table wells need to be filled with hot water and at what
level.]
Keep foods covered to retain heat and to keep contaminants from falling into
food.
We recommend measuring internal food temperatures once an hour using a
calibrated thermometer. Record temperatures in the Holding Temperature
Log. If temperatures are below 57º Celsius, then reheat to 74º Celsius.
Discard hot potentially hazardous food after four hours if they have not been
properly held at or above 57º Celsius.
Do not mix freshly prepared food with food being held for service.
Discard cold potentially hazardous food after four hours if they have not
been properly held below 5° Celsius.
Maintain food contact surfaces:
When possible use color-coded cutting boards for all products. Red for raw
meat, green for vegetables or fruits, and yellow for raw poultry.
Food contact surfaces should be smooth, easily cleaned and sanitized, with
appropriate material.
Clean and sanitize all food contact surfaces prior to and after use. Cleaning
and sanitizing steps need to be done separately in order to be effective.
Take temperatures:
Wash hands.
Use a clean and sanitize calibrated thermometer to take the temperatures of all
potentially hazardous food products, each batch.
Wipe the clean and sanitize thermometer stem with alcohol wipes prior to taking
the temperatures of each food. Open the sanitizer package with clean hands.
Take temperatures in the thickest part of a food item (usually the center). Two
readings should also be taken in different locations to assure thorough cooking
to the appropriate end-point temperature.
Record the end-point cooking temperature on the Cooked Food Temperature
Log
Take temperatures:
Wash hands.
Use a clean and sanitize calibrated thermometer to take the temperatures of
all potentially hazardous food products, each batch.
Wipe the clean and sanitize thermometer stem with alcohol wipes prior to
taking the temperatures of each food. Open the sanitizer package with clean
hands.
Take temperatures in the thickest part of a food item (usually the center).
Two readings should also be taken in different locations to assure thorough
cooking to the appropriate end-point temperature.
Record the end-point cooking temperature on the Cooked Food
Temperature Log
Food may not move through the temperature danger zone fast enough if the food is still
hot when placed in the cooler or freezer or kept in bulk. The hot food may also raise the
temperature of the surrounding food items, placing them in the temperature danger
zone (5º Celsius - 57º Celsius).
Listed below are a few methods that can be used to cool foods more quickly. The
methods can be used alone or in combination.
Methods for cooling foods:
Reduce the quantity of the food being cooled. Cut large food items into smaller
pieces or divide large containers of food into smaller containers.
Use blast chillers or tumble chillers to cool food before placing it into
refrigerated storage.
Use ice-water baths. Divide cooked food into shallow pans or smaller pots then
place them in ice water and stir food items frequently.
Add ice or water as an ingredient. This works for foods that contain water as an
ingredient, such as a soup or stew. The recipe can initially be prepared with less
water than is required. Cold water or ice can then be added after cooking to cool
the product and to provide the remaining water required in the recipe.
Stir food to cool faster and more evenly. Ice paddles (plastic paddles that are
filled with water and frozen) and chill sticks can be used to stir food through the
cooling process. Stirring food with these cold paddles chills food quickly as this
acts as internal ice baths.
Policy: All foods will be thawed using appropriate practices to ensure food
safety.
Procedure: Steps for thawing food include:
Use one of the three acceptable methods for thawing food:
Thaw food in the refrigerator at 5° Celsius or below. NEVER thaw food at
room temperature.
Thaw food needed for immediate service under potable running water at
21° Celsius or lower. Prepare the product within 4 hours of thawing.
Thaw the product in the microwave if product will be cooked
immediately.
Use the lowest shelf in the cooler for thawing raw meat to prevent
cross-contamination and separate raw products from cooked and ready-
to-eat products.
Do not refreeze thawed food, unless they are first cooked or processed.
Policy: Temperatures of all hot and cold foods are taken during service to assure
that foods are maintained at appropriate temperatures, and to ensure the
safety of food served to customers.
Procedure: Employees who will be setting up the plates and serving food must
follow these procedures:
Use a calibrated thermometer to take temperatures of food products at the
beginning of service.
Wipe the thermometer stem with a new alcohol wipe prior to taking the
temperature of any food item.
Take temperatures of all hot potentially hazardous foods as soon as they
are ready for service. Take temperature of all cold potentially hazardous
foods as soon as they are ready for service.
Record all temperatures on the Service Temperature Log and initial.
Make sure that all temperatures are within the critical limits:
Hot foods are above 57o Celsius
Cold foods are below 5o Celsius
Take corrective action, if needed. If hot foods are below 57o Celsius, they
must be heated to above 74o Celsius before service.
Take corrective action, if needed. If cold foods are above 5o Celsius, they
must be chilled to below 5o Celsius. If more than four hours have elapsed
since lat documentation of cold food item temperatures discard the item.
Make sure the tip of the thermometer does not poke through the food.
Measure the temperature for at least 15 seconds.
Read thermometer and record temperature.
Clean and sanitize stem of thermometer and store it in an accessible location.
General thermometer guidelines
Keep thermometers and their storage cases clean, stored safely, and easily
accessible.
Use bi-metallic stemmed thermometers or digital thermometers. Do not use
glass thermometers filled with mercury or spirits.
Wait at least 15 seconds for the thermometer reading to steady before recording
the temperature (bi-metallic).
8.) MARKETING
Budgeting
Marketing operating procedures for budgeting are fairly standard in most industries.
Marketing directors usually meet with other departments, such as research and
development, to discuss upcoming projects. These projects are then scheduled for the
upcoming year. Subsequently, marketing directors determine what resources they need
to complete the projects and obtain the associated costs. For example, a marketing
department may need to advertise its products or services and conduct consumer
research throughout the year. The marketing director will need to include all the costs
for advertising and research, then lists all costs in his or her budget. Budgets are not
always set in stone. Therefore, marketing directors sometimes add an extra buffer, such
as 10 or 15 percent, to their budgets to account for new project requests.
Project Management
Project management is fairly standard among marketing professionals. Marketing
directors or managers usually break projects into various tasks. Subsequently,
these tasks are assigned to specific individuals. The individuals who are
spearheading specific marketing projects will need to estimate how long the
projects will take. Subsequently, they will estimate a realistic time frame for
completing the projects, then communicate these deadlines to the stakeholders
who have requested the projects. Often, marketing professionals use project logs
Product Introductions
There are also certain standard operating procedures for product introductions, another
marketing function. Product introductions start with the generation of several ideas or
concepts, the ideas need to be tested among consumers. Most marketing professionals
will start out with focus groups to better refine their product concept, including brand
names, features, sizes and dimensions. Afterwards, a company may test a product
concept through additional marketing research such as phone surveys. The product will
eventually be introduced on a limited basis.
Pricing Strategies
Marketing departments are usually responsible for setting prices for products or
services. There are several ways to set prices. However, the price of a product is usually
based on consumer demand. In other words, consumers will only pay so much for a
product. Orders will drop off substantially if a company exceeds an acceptable price
range Marketing professionals take several other key considerations into account when
setting prices. They must set a price high enough for the company to earn a profit.
Therefore, marketers will calculate costs that go into producing a product when setting
a price. They must also factor in costs for advertising, labor and shipping. Companies
often price their products or services in line with competitors.
Staffing Planning
One of the first standard procedures for a human resources effort is to plan the
company’s staffing needs, now and into the near future. This prevents reactionary hires
and a poor organizational structure. Call a meeting of management and create an
organization chart, complete with titles and job descriptions, for the current situation
and for meeting anticipated growth benchmarks.
Employee Management
An HR department should have standards for managing the workers, including training,
discipline, annual reviews and employee morale. HR handles initiatives such as
employee recognition and wellness programs. The HR department of Crave Bistro Café
should work with department heads and supervisors on a case-by-case base to ensure
each employee is treated fairly and helped to reach his maximum potential.
13th Month Pay – Based on Presidential Decree 851, all Filipino employees are
entitled to a year-end bonus equivalent to one (1) month salary regardless of the
nature of their employment. The 13th month pay is to be given no later than
December 24 of every year a worker is employed.
Meal and Rest Periods - According to the Labor Code of the Philippines,
employees are entitled to one (1) hour break for meals on an eight-hour work
day. Employees are also entitled to adequate rest periods in the morning and
afternoon, of short durations, that will be counted as hours worked. These rest
periods normally last for 15 minutes and can be used by employees as coffee or
snack breaks.
Overtime Pay and Holiday/Rest Day Pay – Under the Labor Code of the
Philippines, an employee who renders over eight (8) hours of service per day shall
be given an overtime pay which is equivalent to his regular hourly wage plus at
least twenty-five percent (25%) thereof. Under Article 93, if an employee is
asked to work on their scheduled rest day or on a non-working holiday, the
employee shall be paid an additional compensation of at least thirty percent (30%)
of his regular wage.
Other company benefits – Other company benefits that are not government
mandated, but are usually given to employees anyway are:
Holiday/Christmas Bonus – This is given in December, on top of the 13th month
pay. This is considered as the company’s Christmas gift to their employees.
Mid-Year Bonus – This is given in June, when the country’s school year starts.
This is to assist employees in school enrollment fees for their children. This is
also known as an educational assistance plan.
Cost of Living Allowances – Some companies provide their employees with
yearly rice, medicine, and clothing allowances.
Paid Holiday and Vacation Leaves – On top of the mandated 5 days/year leave
with pay, some companies give their employees additional paid holiday and
vacation leaves. The numbers of days allocated for these leaves usually vary from
company to company and depend on the number of years an employee has been
of service to the company.
All the benefits mentioned above, will be enjoyed by the Management Team and
Manager’s Assistants while on the other hand, for those contractual employees (6
months) working in the Company, will still be given benefits and assistance stated as
