The amicable settlement of the dispute was realized through a series of conciliationmediation conferences presided by NCMB-Region 11 Officer In-Charge Director Ma.
Theresa M. Francisco, to which both parties acceded with the support and supervision
of the RCMB.
On 17 November 2014, the parties agreed to a settlement which includes the following:
(1) commitment to bring the issue of non-remittance of the members contribution to the
nearby offices of SSS, Pag-Ibig, and PhilHealth; (2) to abide with the findings and the
recommendation of DOLE Regional Office 11 on the result of assessment conducted
on 22 October at PP90 regarding the post-harvest chemical poisoning incident; and (3)
payment of backwages for the 99 employees of PP90 within 7 to 10 days as claimed by
the management.
Meanwhile, both parties are in agreement that the affected employees of the job basis
scheme will file a separate Single Entry Approach (SEnA) case against the
management for non-payment of holiday pay and rest premiums.
Baldoz lauded the prompt action of NCMBs corps of conciliator-mediators in settling the
dispute through peaceful means.
A good number of resolved cases of labour disputes only proves that amicable
settlement is indeed the best way to solved labour controversy, understanding the rights
of both management and workers is a key towards a better, efficient and more
productive workforce, Baldoz said.
