For instance, in the 2000 case of <strong><em>Serrano<\/em><\/strong>, the Supreme Court ruled that where the employer had a valid reason to dismiss an employee but did not follow the twin requirements of due process, i.e., notice and hearing, the dismissal is ineffectual and the employer must pay full backwages. This, however, is no longer the controlling doctrine (see discussion <a href=\"http:\/\/pnl-law.com\/blog\/reinstatement-pending-appeal-waiting-pendulum-swing\/\">here<\/a>).<\/p>\n<div>\n<p align=\"justify\">The bottom line is this &#8211; employers must be fully aware of and comply with the minimum requirements provided by law. This is the crucial part of the HR department or the company&#8217;s lawyer. Better still, a manager should acquire a working knowledge on labor laws and regulations.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p align=\"justify\">If you want to know about labor standards, minimum wage per region and wage-related matters, overseas employment, alien employment permits, and other topics, you could check the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dole.gov.ph\/\">Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE)<\/a> site.
