Question

Subject: State Policies
Topic: Right to Self-Organization and Collective Bargaining

Discuss the following scenario:

ABC Manufacturing Corporation is a multinational company operating in the Philippines. The company employs hundreds of workers in its manufacturing plant. Recently, a group of employees formed a labor union with the aim of collectively bargaining for better wages, benefits, and working conditions.

However, the management of ABC Manufacturing Corporation is resistant to recognizing the labor union and refuses to engage in collective bargaining negotiations. They argue that the company is not obliged to recognize or negotiate with the labor union because it is a multinational company and is not fully covered by Philippine labor laws.

Based on the provisions of the 1987 Constitution, specifically Article XIII, Section 3, as well as the relevant provisions of the Labor Code, particularly Article 3 and Article 253, discuss the rights and obligations of the employees and the management in this scenario. Analyze the legal basis for the recognition of the labor union and the duty to engage in collective bargaining.
