Description
Labor Law and its practice in the Philippines have been afforded desultory attention and sometimes have been derisively referred to as the realm of newly-minted, neophyte members of the Bar, alien territory not trudged by seasoned and veteran practitioners. Reflecting this atmosphere is a considerable dearth of in-depth jurisprudence as a consequence of puny attempts at crafting doctrinal issues requiring the attention of no less than the highest court of the land. Added to this predicament is an utter lack of referential materials to enhance a more thorough and scholarly approach dissecting and analyzing problem areas in interpreting the provisions of the labor code, including its amendments.
