Is it legal to extend the salary increase period by 3 months for being late 3 times in a month?

According to the provisions of the 2019 Labor Code, there are four forms of labor disciplinary actions, including: Reprimand; Extension of the wage raise period by no more than 06 months; Demotion; and Dismissal.

However, only certain cases are stipulated to apply the form of disciplinary action of dismissal (Article 125). This demonstrates that other forms of labor discipline will be specifically regulated by the Employer in the labor regulations, provided that the content of the labor regulations is not contrary to labor law and the provisions of related laws.

Thus, the company policy stating that being late 03 times in a month will result in a 03-month extension of the wage raise period is not contrary to labor law, so this regulation is entirely lawful.

Respectfully!
