Part I The NATIONAL LABOR RELATIONS COMMISSION

Organization The National Labor Relations Commission (NLRC) is a quasi-judicial agency attached to the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) for program and policy coordination only. It was created under Presidential Decree No. 442, otherwise known as the Labor Code of the Philippines, as amended, which took effect on November 1, 1974. It took over the functions of the Court of Industrial Relations and the Ad Hoc NLRC created under Presidential Decree No. 21. The NLRC is the principal government agency that hears and decides labor-management disputes. It is tasked to promote and maintain industrial peace by resolving labor and management disputes involving both local and overseas workers through compulsory arbitration after mandatory conciliation- mediation conferences failed. This is in consonance with the mission of the NLRC to resolve labor disputes in the fairest, quickest, least expensive and most effective way possible. The Commission Proper of the NLRC is tripartite in representation. Under R.A. No. 9347, the Commission Proper has eight (8) Divisions, each is composed of three (3) members with the Presiding Commissioner representing the government sector and the other two members representing the workers’ and


the employers’ sectors.

Of the eight (8) Divisions, the First, Second, Third, Fourth, Fifth and Sixth Divisions handle cases coming from the National Capital Region and other parts of Luzon, and the Seventh and Eight Divisions, cases from the Visayas and Mindanao, respectively.

The Chairman, aided by the Executive Clerk of the Commission, has exclusive administrative supervision over the NLRC, its regional arbitration branches and all its personnel, including the Labor Arbiters.

The Commission Proper sits en banc only for purposes of promulgating rules and regulations governing the hearing and disposition of cases, and formulating policies affecting its administration and operations.

The Commission Proper sitting en banc may, on temporary or emergency

basis, allow cases within the jurisdiction of any Division to be transferred to and be heard and decided by any other Division which docket may allow additional workload and such transfer will not expose litigants to unnecessary additional expense. The Commission Proper through its Divisions have exclusive appellate jurisdiction over all cases decided by Labor Arbiters at the Regional/Sub-Regional Arbitration Branches. The First, Second, Third, Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Divisions have their respective offices in the National Capital Region, while the Seventh and Eighth Divisions in the cities of Cebu and Cagayan de Oro, respectively.

The Chairman is the Presiding Commissioner of the First Division. In case of the effective absence or incapacity of the Chairman, the

Presiding Commissioner of the Second Division shall be the Acting Chairman.


Performance Planning Framework The 2012 performance planning framework is a continuation of the goals and objectives of the NLRC under the leadership of Chairman Gerardo C. Nograles, in line with the 22-Point Labor and Employment Agenda of President Benigno S. Aquino III, through Secretary Rosalinda Dimapilis-Baldoz, which is to reform labor arbitration and adjudication systems by streamlining procedures, removing red tape, and at the same time, restore integrity and fairness in the system.

Part II ARBITRATION and ADJUDICATION

Caseload and Disposition For 2012, the NLRC was able to maintain a higher level of disposition of cases, and posted gains in reducing the number of pending cases.

In 2012, the NLRC posted an overall output of 42,598 cases, 30,888 as original cases from the Regional Arbitration Branches (RABs), and 11,710 as appealed cases from the Commission Proper. In terms of inflow versus outflow of cases, of the 30,107 received original cases, 30,888 or 103% were disposed of by the Regional Arbitration Branches (RABs). On the other hand, of the 11,085 received appeal cases, 11,710 or 106% were disposed of by the Commission Proper. Based on a ten (10)-year trend, from 2003-2012, the outflow or the cases disposed of outnumbered the inflow or the cases received by the RABs as shown in the graph below:

Similarly, the outflow or cases disposed of in most years outnumbered the inflow or cases received by the Commission Proper as shown in the graph below:

Moreover, all efforts were exerted towards amicable settlement of labor disputes during the compulsory arbitration process. As a result, settlement efforts have been successful to a substantial degree every year. Records show that from 2003 to 2012, the average settled cases by the RABs posted at 13,889 or 43% of the average disposal.

For FY 2012, the RABs posted 13,306 or 43% share of settled cases during the mandatory conciliation and mediation conference of the compulsory arbitration procedure.

The above settled cases are in addition to the settled/withdrawn

request/cases during the early part of the mandatory conciliation and mediation conference under the Single-Entry Approach (SEnA), which was posted at 3,693 or 35% settlement/withdrawn out of 10,635 requests for assistance, with P70,296,086.00 settlement award, and 3,084 workers benefitted. The Single-Entry Approach (SEnA) program of the DOLE serves as entry points in speeding up the resolution of all labor issues and dejudicializing the process of handling labor cases. Pursuant to Department Order No. 107, s. 2010, the SEnA was fully implemented by the NLRC in 2011.

Project Speedy and Efficient Delivery of Labor Justice (SpeED) 5 One of the institutional reforms of President Benigno S. Aquino, Jr., through DOLE Secretary Rosalinda Dimapilis-Baldoz and NLRC Chairman Gerardo C. Nograles, is to pursue responsive public service delivery and efficient use of resources through speedy and efficient delivery of labor justice through the Project SpeED (Speedy and Efficient Delivery of Labor Justice), which aims to reduce case backlog and to ensure that case dockets remain current (Agenda No. 6 of 22-Point Philippine Labor and Employment Agenda).


The current Project SpeED 5 was designed to ensure that 98% of all December 2011 and earlier pending cases are disposed of by the end of September 2012. At the end of September 2012, the NLRC posted a total case disposal of 11,862 or 98.16%, 9,399 or 97.78% from the Regional Arbitration Branches, and 2,463 or 99.63% from the Commission Proper.

Affirmation of Judgment

Since decision making is the primordial duty in order to maintain industrial peace and promote social justice, the NLRC, as a personification of labor justice, strives for excellence in deciding labor cases. As a result, the NLRC was able to maintain a higher level of affirmation rate of decisions by the Court of Appeals and the Supreme Court. From 2008 to 2012, the average decisions affirmed by the Court of Appeals numbered 1,048 or 91%, and 99 or 9% only for reversed decisions. At the Supreme Court, the average affirmed decisions numbered 904 or 89%, and 98 or 11% for reversed decisions.

Part III REFORM PROJECTS

Streamlining of Procedures

In line with its commitment to continuously streamline the procedures in labor arbitration and adjudication, and pursuant to its power to promulgate rules and regulations, the NLRC En Banc amended the 2011 NLRC Rules of Procedure on November May 2012 (En Banc Resolution No. 11-12, Series of 2012).

The 2011 NLRC Rules of Procedure, as amended contains new provisions to address the issue of delay and to enforce final decisions effectively. These include, among others, the expanded coverage of prohibited pleadings, utilization of service of private courier as additional mode for service of summons and other legal processes, provisions for specific periods for filing certain pleadings, authority of the Chairman to blacklist bonding companies, strengthening of contempt powers, imposition of fines to ensure compliance with the final decisions, introduction of safeguards to ensure immediate enforcement of judgment, provision for the manner of execution of judgment and the effect of reversal during execution proceedings. The NLRC endeavors to further strengthen its mandatory conciliation and mediation proceedings with the end-view of increasing the number of disposition of cases by way of settlement and reducing time spent in case resolution. For this reason, the Single-Entry Approach (SEnA) was continuously monitored and implemented in all the Regional Arbitration Branches. In the event, the requests for assistance were not settled through the SEnA, all efforts were still exerted during the mandatory conciliation and mediation conferences to settle the cases assigned to the Labor Arbiters in recognition of the importance of conciliation and mediation.

The NLRC also promulgates the 2012 NLRC Sheriffs’ Manual on

Execution of Judgment per En Banc Resolution No. 10-12, Series of 2012. This is to address the public distrust on the process of execution; to expedite the enforcement of decisions; to ensure transparency in the enforcement of decisions through uniform observance of prescribed procedures; and to guarantee receipt of monetary awards by prevailing litigants through institutionalization of safeguards in the handling of fiduciary funds.

Pursuant to the reform measures for labor arbitration and adjudication system, continuous monitoring of the following are observed: (a) e-raffle of cases and inventory of all (regular, transferred, remanded and revived) cases; and (b) transmittal of records of cases on appeal including Memorandum on Appeal within forty-eight (48) hours from the filing of the appeal.

Also, strict compliance with the “First-In-First-Out” policy in the disposition

of cases (En Banc Resolution No. 13-07, Series of 2007) has been continuously and regularly monitored. As a consequence, majority of the RABs and Divisions attained current status in their case dockets. Similarly, the implementation of acceptable level of performance set for Labor Arbiters and Commissioners, and enforcement of sanctions to non-performing officials is strictly observed. As a penalty measure for non-compliance, the NLRC issued warnings which sometimes lead to withholding of their Representation And Transportation Allowance (RATA); Recognizing the importance of capacity-building and with the implementation of the Strategic Performance Management System (SPMS), the NLRC has participated in the Consultation-Workshop on the Operationalization of the SPMS and Human Resources Division Programs. This is aimed of ensuring the accountability of the agencies and their officials and employees. In view of the budget allocation system, regular monitoring and submission of project procurement management plan to streamline the processing of request of office supplies are regularly observed. The Bids and Awards Committee is required to submit regular reports to ensure transparency and accountability. Further, in line with the strategy under the Philippine Labor and Employment Plan 2011-2016 to ensure transparency and accountability in dispute settlement by posting the status of labor cases at the NLRC website, the NLRC developed a computer program to provide a comprehensive database of all cases at the RABs. The Web-Based Case Tracking System (CTS) is designed to expedite the resolution of cases through the effective monitoring and strict observance of time limits in the conduct of case event, from filing to disposition.


Strengthening Integrity and Fairness

The NLRC continuously implements and monitors its Integrity Development Action Plan (IDAP), a roadmap in the fight against the perception of graft and corruption. Along this line, the following activities/initiatives/programs are conducted and implemented: (a) Bilis Aksyon Partner (BAP) in compliance with the CSC Memorandum Circular (Mamayan Muna Program) to handle all feedbacks/reports received from the public and other government and non-government organizations; (b) Code of Conduct for Commissioners and Labor Arbiters, and ongoing consultation with the NLRC Employees’ Association (NLRCEA) on the Code of Conduct for the rank-and-file employees; (c) Continuous implementation of New Frontline System to ensure the integrity of raffle system through e-Raffle and to effectively assist litigants in filing complaints; (e) Adoption of Efficiency & Integrity Board (EIB) Rules of Procedure; (f) Creation of Board of Inquiry (BOI), to investigate administrative complaints against Presidential appointees, and the Administrative Complaints Committee (ACC), to hear and investigate administrative complaints against rank-and-file employees; (g) posting of Networth of NLRC Senior Officials at the DOLE and NLRC websites; and (h) regular conduct of moral enhancement seminars for officials and employees.

Improving Quality Decisions

While it is the goal of the NLRC to dispose of labor cases fairly and speedily, it is also tasked to resolve the same with quality decisions. For this reason, continuous monitoring of directives instructing all Presiding/Commissioners to submit to the Chairman the disapproved/not considered draft report/ decision of their reviewers, with their comments, observations, or underscoring the reasons for the disapproval. The Chairman, after evaluation of the draft decision/report, shall take appropriate action which may include filing of cases before the Efficiency and Integrity Board (EIB). Recognizing the essence of capacity building, the NLRC conducted several trainings and seminars, such as: (a) computation of monetary awards; (b) D.O. 18-A on contracting and sub-contracting; (c) 2011 NLRC Rules of Procedure, case and records management; (d) Single-Entry Approach Rules; (e) conciliation-mediation; (f) stenography; and (g) values revisited.


Implementation of Project SpeED

Consistent with the agenda to reform labor arbitration and adjudication systems by streamlining procedures, Project Speedy and Efficient Delivery of Labor Justice (SpeED) was continuously implemented in the NLRC. Project SpeED was designed to achieve a 98% disposition rate of all cases. In the pursuit of achieving the targets set under the Project SpeEDs, Administrative Orders and Memoranda were issued directing all Presiding/Commissioners of the Commission Proper and Executive/Labor Arbiters of the Main/Sub Regional Arbitration Branches to resolve and dispose of all enrolled cases within the target periods. Strategies for accomplishment of the Project SpeED are also designed to support the reforms, such as but not limited to the following: (a) regular conduct of special task forces of all pending cases, including unresolved cases of retired and separated Labor Arbiters and Commissioners; (b) recommended the appointment of additional Labor Arbiters and Commission Attorneys; (c) continuous monitoring and implementation of the “First-In-First-Out” policy (En Banc Resolution No. 13-07, Series of 2007) in the resolution of cases which directs the Labor Arbiters to dispose of a minimum of twenty-seven (27) cases per month, and to submit monthly reports on their respective outputs to their immediate superiors for proper monitoring, and in case of non-compliance thereof, a penalty of withholding of the RATA is enforced; (d) continuous monitoring of minimum case disposal of 50 every month per Commissioner; (e) strict monitoring of ageing of cases pursuant to the resolution periods set by the Project SpeED, and non-compliance thereof, a penalty is imposed as provided under the En Banc Resolution No. 13-07, Series of 2007; and (f) strict monitoring of attendance of NLRC personnel to ensure efficiency of performance.
