Monthly report · August 2026

In August, advertised pay in the Philippines rose 4.8% to a median of ₱37,739 a month.

Composition-controlled: the mix of roles and cities is frozen at the base month, so this moves when pay moves — not when job boards do. Built from 8,694 salary-disclosing postings across 10 boards. One board (OnlineJobs.ph) supplies 52% of them.
