ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS:
1. Research and outline herein the procedures necessary in the

formation of labor organizations and unions in the Philippines.
The Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) is the government
agency tasked with ensuring that Philippine workers have access to fair
treatment, safe working conditions, and just wages. Under PD 442 of the
Labor Code of the Philippines, as amended, the DOLE is mandated to
process the application for registration of labor organizations in order for
them to acquire legal personality and to enjoy the rights given to legitimate
labor organizations. Union registration refers to the process of determining
whether the application for registration of a labor union organized for
collective bargaining, complies with the documentary requirements
prescribed under Rules 3 and 4 of DOLE Department Order No. 40-03 and
the rules implementing Book V of the Labor Code, as amended.
All labor unions whose members are employees who work in commercial,
industrial, and agricultural enterprises, and employees of
government-owned or controlled corporations without original charters
established under the Corporation Code, including religious, charitable,
medical, or educational institutions which exist in whole and in part for
collective bargaining.
Supervisory employees shall not be eligible to join a rank-and-file

employee labor union but may form their own separate labor unions.
Alien workers with valid working permits issued by DOLE may exercise
their right to self-organization and join or assist labor unions for purposes
of collective bargaining if they are nationals of a country that grants the
same or similar rights to Filipino workers, as certified by the Department
of Foreign Affairs.

2. Look for the procedures and grounds provided in certain

company policies as regards the termination or dismissal, of
employees. In your opinion, are they fair and reasonable?
- In my opinion, the procedures and grounds provided in certain company
policies regarding the termination or dismissal of employees are fair and
reasonable.
The first thing to note is that all employees are given an opportunity to be
heard before they are dismissed. This includes the right to ask questions,
request additional information, or even bring witnesses if you feel that your
case needs more testimony. The second thing is that if an employee is let go
because of something that was out of their control, for example, if a
product was recalled or if there was a major change in direction for the
company, then they will be compensated for any lost wages and benefits.
Finally, if an employee is dismissed for no reason at all such as if they have
been with the company for less than one year, then they will receive six
months' pay as severance pay.
I think it is important to note that the termination or dismissal of a person

is not always a bad thing. In fact, it is one of the most important decisions a
company can make. It's also important to remember that when a company
makes such a decision, it must do so in accordance with its company's
policies and procedures.
3. Write a critical paper on the status of employment in the

Philippines at present, with emphasis on working conditions.
- The Philippines is a country known for its diverse, colorful culture and
beautiful beaches, yet the economy has not been able to sustain itself. The
Philippines is in the midst of a jobs crisis. The unemployment rate is
getting higher, and the Philippines has one of the longest unemployment
gaps among its Southeast Asian neighbors. This is due to both a lack of
sufficient job creation, as well as an inability to adapt to new technology
and automation.
One solution to this problem has been the development of new

technologies that allow for faster production of goods or services, but these
new technologies are often not widely adopted by businesses due to their
high cost and technical difficulty. Many Filipinos are forced into
low-paying manual labor positions because they cannot afford
higher-paying jobs that require more specialized skills or education, many
others find themselves working long hours in factories or farms because
they lack access to higher education opportunities.
In addition to these issues with employment generation, there are also

issues with working conditions among Filipinos. For example, many
workers are forced into long hours without overtime pay or other benefits
such as health insurance or retirement savings schemes, some workers
have been subjected to sexual harassment at work by their supervisors and
coworkers, and some workers have even been fired for speaking up about
these issues directly with management instead of just silently suffering
through them.
