quite expensive to maintain it when not in operation.

 

just my two cents... :

 

 

I agree. Corporations who fail to submit General Information Sheets and Financial Statements for the last six (6) years to the SEC may have their Certificates of Registration revoked. Kaya lang, SRC Rule 68 requires that financial statements to be filed with the Commission must be audited by an external auditor and must be prepared and presented in conformity with the generally accepted accounting principles in the Philippines, kaya kahit di kayo nag-ooperate gagastos pa rin kayo sa accountant (who has to be accredited with the SEC). Magkano ang ibabayad nyo sa accountant compared sa pag-rehistro ng bagong corporation na ala pa atang 3 libo. Dagdag mo pa yung pagre-renew ng mga busines permit nyo annually

 

i have an inkling about the costs.

 

well, we were thinking that with the years na out of operations yung co, that will add to our history. yung tipong 3 years from now, we can claim na 5 years in existence na kami.

 

is this a good enough reason to keep it?

[webmaster_ph]

can anybody help me with this?

This is what is written on my notice of NOTICE OF RETRENCHMENT.

Under The Labor Code of the Phils. Book 6 Article 283 Closure of establishment and reduction of personnel, it states three (3) options regarding the benefits due to the employee :

 

1 - In case of termination due to the installation of labor-saving devices or redundancy, the worker affected thereby shall be entitled to a separation pay equivalent to at least his one (1) month pay or to at least one (1) month pay for every year of service, whichever is higher.

 

2 - In case of retrenchment to prevent losses and in cases of closures or cessation of operations of establishment or undertaking not due to serious business losses or financial reverses, the separation pay shall be equivalent to one (1) month pay or

 

3 - at least one-half (1/2) month pay for every year of service, whichever is higher. A fraction of at least six (6) months shall be considered one (1) whole year.

 

Now, based from the notice that I have received, I'd like to clarify if I fall under the second option, since it was stated clearly "to avoid financial reverses". From my understanding that is similar to "not due to serious business losses or financial reverses".

 

Can someone clear this up, since my manager stated that they'll be giving us the third option. I'm kinda confused.

 

Thanks in advance.

 

 

My opinion is perhaps simplistic but this is the way it's supposed to work. If the retrenchment is due to business losses then it's one half month for every year of service. But if it's not, like the one cited by your company, then you should get one month for every year of service.

normally, its one month for every year of service.

greetings, honorable men of the law!

 

i have combed through this thread, searching for issues that resemble my problem. unfortunately, i have found none.

 

i have married a very beautiful woman who already has a son. she, in her wisdom, decided long ago against marrying the child's biological father. the biological father is now married with two children of his own.

 

my eight-year old stepson is carrying his mother's surname, per Philippine laws.

 

the three of us want to change his surname to my surname. how do we go about this? is there a need to seek the biological father's permission? he has acknowledged paternity by signing the child's birth certificate as the father, and he supports the child's education. he also visits weekly.

 

if i adopt my stepson, will the adoption invalidate his right to demand support from his biological father? will it also cancel his rights as heir to the estate of his father?

 

thank you very much for the time, and all praises for this very helpful thread.

if gusto ko ng OR.

that's illegal.

 

they are giving you the option to ignore the e-vat tax.

 

its up to you. if you really need the o.r. then settle your obligation.

I just discovered that my supervisor and manager has misappropriated our company budget worth 20,000.00 to their own. While I and my supervisor were having an informal conversation she made a slip and told me, "pinagawa ko yung pang ilalim ng oto ko sa goodyear (certain branch) inabot ng 20,000". My mind immediately registered in a split second and I remembered just 3 weeks ago my manager gave me a debit ticket with a receipt attached under it indicating goodyear which is worth 20,000.00 since I am in charge in disbursing cash. So I asked, "para saan ito?". My manager replied, "pinagawa ko kay mang roland (company driver) yung van ng company". AFter that she even asked me, "ano ba ang mga pinapagawa sa sasakyan sa ilalim na aabot ng 20,000?". I was puzzled by the question to which I replied, "bakit hindi niyo tanongin si mang roland". My manager replied, "wala kasi siya ngayon inutusan ko mag deliver ng mga dokumento. Eh kailangan na ma cash out yung expense". So I told her that its probably a suspension arm, etc. etc. and I processed the transaction and gave her the money. But I become very suspicious on my manager. But when my supervisor talked about the amount involved in the repair on her car. Yun na nga yon. Coz transactions will not be processed without the counter signature of the supervisor. SO the manager is most probably in collusion with my supervisor.

 

I am going to dig deep in our records to see if there are other suspicious transactions made by our manager.

 

So what other evidence do I need to pin them down aside from the ticket they signed? What if they destroyed the records that would be the primary evidence to prove their guilt? Since any employee can get in and out of our storage room to where our records are kept. What other avenues can I use to prove their guilt? I was thinking that although the document itself may be destroyed or lost. But the debit transaction is still recorded in our ledger. Can I use this against them?

1. report it to the bir hotline/website.

2. doesn't matter. credit card receipts are accepted as proof of purchase.

3. most likely, the establishment will be prosecuted. not you.

quick question po sirs?

 

a friend of mine's dad passed away last year.

 

he didn't leave any last will or testament.

 

a few weeks ago na-discover nila na may stock certificates in his dad's name in a certain company.

 

ngayon, the family wants to sell the stock certificates.

 

how can they do this eh wala naman sa pangalan nila yung certificates?

 

or, better yet, what do they need to do so they can sell the stocks?

 

btw, the company now knows that my friend's dad is deceased.

The by-the-book way:

1. Find out who or what bank/company is the stock transfer agent. You can look at the stock certificate itself. If that information isn't there, call up the Corporate Secretary of the company and ask who is the stock transfer agent.

2. Ask a lawyer to draw up an Extra Judicial Deed of Partition which allocates to the heirs their share in the deceased's properties, to cover the disposition of the shares of stock.

3. File this with the BIR and settle the estate taxes and penalties, if any. You will be required to publish the extrajudicial partition for three consecutive weeks and get an affidavit of publication which you will also need to submit to the BIR. Get your lawyer to help you with this.

4. Present the extrajudicial partition and the clearance from the BIR to the transfer agent and request them to transfer the stock certificates to the designated heir's names.

5, When this is done, you can now sell the stocks.
