hippo Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 hi im a noob, just can't help but pose a question: our company hired us as contractuals with a promise of a possibility of regularization, but before our 1 year contract ended, they decided hire a "cooperative" which became their new source of manpower, and forcibly transfering us to become members of this cooperative, else we hit the streets and look for another job. of course i feel that this is just to circumvent the labor code ruling that an employee who stays for more than a year should be given regular status. is this allowed under the current labor code?

Many thanks!<{POST_SNAPBACK}> Good Day MTC-Gigolo Technically, yes for it would appear in the BIR record that you were unemployed in those period. However, your current employer should have included your income and corresponding taxes from company B so that you would not worry yourself filing and that's the proper procedure too.

hippo Posted January 12, 2005 Share Posted January 12, 2005 good am and thanks tokoy for replying. to clarify, you mean just by calling us "business partners" or "cooperative co-owners" gives them immunity from suit with the nlrc? i still feel that this is unfair, as for me i already rendered 11 months as a contractual (which they termed "project employee") then 9 months as coop member, doing the same thing by the way. do i have a case if i decided to pursue this with the nlrc? can we be members of the union, and ask for their help in pursuing this? I strongly feel that we're being screwed as we are not given the same benefits (such as a health plan, sss, philhealth, pag-ibig, etc) and protection (they can recall our appointments anytime) as regular employees. it's so amazing what these employers think and do just to cut costs...

Tokoy Posted January 12, 2005 Share Posted January 12, 2005 (edited) good day hippo let me take your inquiry by point good am and thanks tokoy for replying. to clarify, you mean just by calling us "business partners" or "cooperative co-owners" gives them immunity from suit with the nlrc? i still feel that this is unfair, as for me i already rendered 11 months as a contractual (which they termed "project employee") then 9 months as coop member, doing the same thing by the way. do i have a case if i decided to pursue this with the nlrc? can we be members of the union, and ask for their help in pursuing this? i believe you definitely have a case. since you've been with the company for more than 5 months. though they transferred you to cooperative, still they are liable to regularize you because of the tenure you've spent with the company. let me clarify also that you cannot become a member of the union since you're not a regular employee, as such the union cannot do anything in your case. what you can do is to go to DOLE/NLRC and file a complain. allow me also to clarify that new employees who are hired under the cooperative scheme would no longer be considered as employee since they would become business partners as owners of the cooperative. I strongly feel that we're being screwed as we are not given the same benefits (such as a health plan, sss, philhealth, pag-ibig, etc) and protection (they can recall our appointments anytime) as regular employees. in this case i think that your company is in deep trouble for not deducting sss, philhealth and pag-ibig contributions which are mandatory in nature. as a project-based employee you are still entitled to these deductions as these are government mandated benefits. i think it is with obvious reason that they didnt deduct these contributions to do away with employee-employer relationship. it's so amazing what these employers think and do just to cut costs...<{POST_SNAPBACK}> Edited January 12, 2005 by Tokoy Quote Link to comment

Tokoy Posted February 4, 2005 Share Posted February 4, 2005 Just in case you ever got the two mixed up. This should make things a bit clearer. IN PRISON.. you spend the majority of your time in an 8X10 cell. AT WORK... you spend the majority of your time in a 6X8 desk cubicle. IN PRISON...you get three meals a day.AT WORK...you only get a break for one meal and you pay for it. IN PRISON...you get time off for good behaviour.AT WORK...you get more work for good behaviour. IN PRISON...the guard locks and unlocks all the doors for you.AT WORK...you must carry around a security card and open all the doors for yourself. IN PRISON...you can watch TV and play games. AT WORK...you get fired for watching TV and playing games. IN PRISON...you get your own toilet.AT WORK...you have to share with some idiot who pees on the seat. IN PRISON...they allow your family and friends to visit.AT WORK...you can't even speak to your family. IN PRISON...the taxpayers pay all expenses with no work required. AT WORK...you get to pay all the expenses to go to work and then they deduct taxes from your salary to pay for prisoners. IN PRISON...you spend most of your life inside bars wanting to get out.AT WORK...you spend most of your time wanting to get out and go inside bars. IN PRISON...you must deal with sadistic wardens.AT WORK...they are called HR Managers Quote Link to comment
