Issued March 17, 2020, the COVID-19 Adjustment Measures Program (CAMP), if eligible, will provide one-time financial relief of P5,000 to affected workers in lump sum, non-conditional, regardless of employment status.

Do take note that DOLE can still deny an application upon determination of any of the following grounds:
