Rules on Leave of Absence

[miss resilient]

In the company i am working for, accumulated ang leave namin. in the past, 25 alloted leave ang binibigay nila pagkasimula ng taon. BUT NOW, they decided to give it pag nakumpleto mo ang isang taon. confusing? halimbawa, hindi ka nagleave in the past five months, saka mo lang i e earn ang leave up to that period of month. so pag nagresign ka, wala kang makukuha na back pay. walang CBA sa company namin..you think legal ito? i want to contact DOLE about this kaso i am too busy pa at this time.

this might help you in a way - chapter 3, article 95.

labor code

dunno if there are other laws that apply, though.

[aquacharly]

Technically,  the company is not doing anything wrong. 
The 25 days are still there, and the policy of  its paying for unused leaves remains.
What has changed is the administration of the leaves, or the timing thereof.

So it is not a clear cut violation.   
Madali  ma justify.. sabihin lang nila it is in the interest of orderly leave administration in the interest of orderly operations blah blah blah... and tadah!!!  they will whip out that Employment Contract with the Fine Print you signed conforme to ... that you accept Company changes of etc etc etc 
No benefit was removed, technically.  Na postpone lang pag use mo or pag cash- in mo.

I got this message:

Hi Team! For those who were absent from August 6-9 or any absence within those days,
sanction/s will be waived if you have a certificate (from barangay, police or any certificate) that your area has been affected by the flood.

What can you say about it? What does DOLE say? What did the NEWS and Government say during this week that we have been affected by HAIKUI Habagat?

^hmm... i think yung august 7 pwedeng i-contest sa company and report sa DOLE since declared ng malacanang na walng pasok nun. as for the other days, not sure lang, since hindi naman declared na walang pasok nun. i guess may right ang company to decide for those days.

In fairness sa company namin, file ka lang ng leave of absence dun sa 2 pang magkasunod na days after ng Habagat,  oks na. No need to provide proof kung talagang baha pa sa inyo or what. Ika nga konsensya na lang. Wag lang magpo-posts sa FB na nag hahappy-happy ka lang pala.
Very understanding naman yung company namin dito sa Habagat crisis.

[purple_girl]

^same in our company sis. very lucky tayo, but maraming companies kasi ang not as understanding. sa amin naman, those who can work or are critical resources can work from home, pag hindi talaga kayang makapag-work, file lang ng EL.

[k_heart]

^oo nga sis.mAhigpit yata sila sa mga call centers (BPO?) at mga malls. Although ako pumasok na agad last Thursday. Hirap din kasi matambakan ng work.Nataon pang midyear budget review namin.

Agree sa August 7, pwede sya talagang icontest at isumbong. Napaka-heartless naman ng mga kompanyang yan.

[miss resilient]

kasi sa work ko ngayon..ako ang nag pe preaaprove ng leave!
