ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER NO. 5 -
CREATING AN AD HOC COMMITTEE TO STRENGTHEN THE CAPABILITY OF THE
GOVERNMENT'S MACHINERY FOR SETTLEMENT OF LABOR DISPUTES IN THE CITIES
AND PROVINCE OF CEBU
WHEREAS, the recent changes in the
political and economic atmosphere have spawned numerous
labor-management disputes in the country, particularly in the province
and cities of Cebu;
WHEREAS, the labor problems arising in Cebu are partly caused by its
geographical distance from the seat of the Central Government;
WHEREAS, in the settlement of the labor controversies in Cebu, there is
a need to bridge this geographical gap to enable the Central Government
to act more efficiently and expeditiously;
WHEREAS, in the settlement of those labor problems, there is a need to
involve the political leaders in Cebu to assist the National Government
in establishing industrial peace as a condition for favorable
investment climate;
NOW, THEREFORE, I, CORAZON C. AQUINO, by virtue of the powers vested in
me by law, do hereby create an ad hoc Committee to assist in the speedy
negotiation, conciliation, arbitration and settlement of labor disputes
in Cebu Province and the cities of Cebu, composed of the following:
Minister ANTONIO V. CUENCO
Dep. Min. NENITA C. DALUZ
The Reg. Dir., Region VII
Min. of Labor & Employment
The Committee shall have the following functions:
1.
2.
3.
4.
In cases where an impending labor dispute comes to the attention of the
committee, it shall immediately convene representatives of the
interested parties to a conciliation meeting and try to avert
interruption of work. Should this not be possible after sincere efforts
have been exerted, then the committee shall recommend to the Minister
of Labor such action it may deem appropriate in the premises.
In the performance of its duties and functions as above mentioned, the
Committee is hereby empowered to administer oaths and issue subpoenas
requiring the attendance and testimony of any person and/or production
of such books, papers, contracts, records, and such other documents as
may be necessary in the performance of its functions.
This Order shall take effect immediately.
Done in the City of Manila,
this 9th day of September in the year of Our Lord, nineteen hundred and
eighty-six.
