PUV drivers get P461 million from LTFRB’s service contracting scheme

Public utility vehicle (PUV) drivers have received a total of P461.8 million from the Service Contracting Program (SCP) of the Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board (LTFRB).

In a Facebook post on Wednesday, the LTFRB said the amount includes the P4,000 initial payout to all drivers who joined the program, their weekly payout, and their on-time incentive.

“12,371 drivers have received their initial payout and 2,933 drivers have received their P25,000 onboarding incentive in the entire country,” it said in Filipino.

The LTFRB said PUV drivers who joined the program in 2020 until April 30 this year got P25,000 on-time incentive, while those who joined from May 1 until June 15 will receive P20,000.

“In addition, PUV drivers under the program may receive an additional P7,000 if they login with the Systems app for five days in a week,” it said. 

The LTFRB reminded PUV drivers to always log in when working to receive their additional weekly payout.

For drivers or operators currently operating, it said they may join the SCP by visiting www.servicecontracting.ph and visit the LTFRB’s social media and website for more information.
