Resignation is always an option for most people. But for some people it's not. If you're a single dad and feeding 3 mouths, resignation is not an immediate answer. So that's why I'm asking what could be done about these kind of bosses? If he's just someone who manages the company, then it's easy to complain to owners right...
What I'm asking here, is there any Law to protect the rights of the employees in that sort of case? wherein the employers are unfair and abusive...
I think there should be a system or organization that does random checking companies every now and then... random checking to be exact...
Labor codes and conducts here in the Philippines are not that keen in the details at all, most if not are just promulgations of a general law without even tackling the sublaws or by laws that it has been constituted on it, in the first place..
what i am telling is that, here in our country.. the masa or ordinary working person is not that all protected by our labor practices as these laws are first of all enacted for the benefit of the company then the individual itself..
In any labor practices, it is the company who holds the rights and policies/rules to it's employees... So if the boss of the company says so.. as long as it is for the benefit of the greater whole.. then his mandate is obeyed at all cost and across the people concern (for all who is working on his company)
You can complain to DOLE if you think your boss is soliciting illegal sexual or morally abusing an employee... you for example.. but you have to bear in mind, court hearings here.. usually takes ages and years of years of pain and sacrifices.. even if DOLE hears your moans and complaints... it would fall in deaf ears eventually...
the likely case of just filing a resignation is a better excuse not to deal on all these hassles...
You can go on a WELGA if you have a UNION on your company.. but usually UNIONS are look down by LABOR especially DOLE as these are just instigating and creating more problems not just to the company but to the general public as well...
