Inquiry on EC Cash Assistance or SSS Sickness Benefit for COVID positive employees

Requested from SSS by D. Layag at 11:43 AM on Jan 08, 2022.
Purpose: Information
Date of Coverage: 01/08/2022 - 01/08/2022
Tracking no: #SSS-558665123846

Hi! 

I am Danica Layag and I work in a non-profit organization working with the most depressed communities in Tondo and Baseco Manila. 

Our employees will undergo RT-PCR Testing next week and we would like to assure them that if they tested positive, they will receive cash assistance from SSS through its sickness benefit and/or EC Cash Assistance. 

In line with this, may I request for the list of requirements that we should prepare if ever we tested positive? And is it regardless if the patient is symptomatic or not? Thank you very much! This is such a very convenient way to learn.
