Good to know: If you are sick or injured and cannot work for at least 4 days (at home or in hospital), SSS pays a daily allowance of 90% of your Average Daily Salary Credit (six highest MSCs in the 12 months before the semester of sickness, regular part up to ₱20,000 each, ÷ 180). Up to 120 days a calendar year. You need 3 monthly contributions in that 12-month window, you must have used up your company sick leave, and you must notify your employer. The employer advances it and SSS reimburses them. Rules checked November 10, 2026. SSS has the final word — check your official record or payslip.
