    2. Totoo po ito. ang reason ng GMA is redundancy. grabe na kasi sa pagkagahaman si FLG.

    3. Heard from my GMA friends, effectivity ng lay-off is June. so walang law na naviolate. Redundancy ang reason nila and heard na din lang regional ang madadale. including mga employee sa manila. around 200 employee daw maaaalis

    4. Mababa kasi ang revenues nila for the past 4 years.

    8. Naunang magtanggal ang ABS ng 100+ staff. Kung mamalisyahin ang pagtanggal ng tao ng Kamuning, dapat yun ding sa Ignacia. Kasi naman, pati ba naman pagbagsak ng kaperahan sa TV industry ay papasukan pa rin ng network war? Hay... At ito namang nag post sa FB, di pa pala sigurado sa info niya, kung ano ano na ang binibintang. Makagawa lang ingay...

    10. 1:31 paki-google ang salitang "blocktimer". makasabat lang? kung nagtitingi lang ng talino sa sari-sari stores, matutulungan ka pa...kahit kalahating kilo ng utak na gumagana...kapag no.1 ang network, magtatanggal ng ganong kadaming empleyado?

    11. Palugi na ang GMA..Its a sinking ship. D makatarungan ang ginawa nila sa mga employees sa provincial stations nla. Tinanggal nla agad2x. Tama po iyong sinabi ng girl sa fb nya. My sources are from GMA staff mismo. Plan nilang mag reklamo sa DOLE

    12. 1252 - Ang tanong, were they properly compensated for not being advised in time, kung totoo mang di sila naabisuhan agad? Were they not been given 30days compensation IF they were not given 30days notice? Good luck to GMA and good luck to the laid off people. Ang masasabi ko lang, abogado ang may ari ng GMA. Hindi yan kikilos without hinking things through. Whatever happens, sana mangibabaw kung sino man ang dapat mangibabaw. Besides, everything happens for a reason. Sinong magsasabi na mapapasama ang mga natanggal pag nawala na sila sa GMA? baka nga gumanda pa ang buhay nila.

    13. Bakit ganon, ang lalaki ata kasi ng binabayad nila sa mga artist nila na di naman kumikita mga shows or flop tapos todo spoil pa sa kanila kahit flop namana, tapos etong mga ordinary na employees na malaki din tulong sa station nila karamihan pa siguro minimum sahod di nila mabayaran ng ayos o ni maalagaan man lang... Itong mga staff ang bumubuo ng isang company so marapat lang na bigyan ng importansya!

    1. Redundancy yan. so hindi kailangan ng justice system not unless hindi ka babayaran. Usually ang tinatanggal dyan ay ang mga na-hire tapos nalugi naman ang show. Last in, first out ang rules or performance basis ang mga natatanggal.

      Delete
    2. Lahat po ng workers ang tinanggal as in they are closing all their provincial stations. Ginawa nla iyan w/out proper notice. Biglaan nalang. So sa tingin mo makatarungan ba yan?!!!!

    5. June ang effectivity para dun sa mga execs..To arrange necessary things before permanent closure. Pati pagbenta ng buildings, etc. pero dun sa mga cameramen. drivers, reporters, effective upon receipt of memo. So, AGAD AGAD xa.... And yes, they we're ask to sign an agreement...AGAD AGAD...with a promise of this and that.

    5. The right word is redundancy... It is one of the just reasons under our labor code that a company can terminate the service of an employee even if they are regular employees.

      Provided that the company can satisfy the requirements under our labor code. One of the reqs is to inform the employee and DOLE in writing one month prior to the last day of service to the employee...

      From what she said, mukhang tama naman ang ginawa ng GMA.. they were informed of their termination pero baka one month pa ang effectivity date... unless immediately ang nakalagay.

      Delete
    6. ay parang ganyan ang ginagawa dito sa amin sa company namin, immediate ka tatanggalin o ilang days lang ata tsugi ka na tapos ung bayad pa sau eh 50% lang, di ba dapat 100%??

  19. There's such a banana called "pay in lieu of notice". Instrad of giving you 30 days' notice, the employer pays you that 30 days and you need not report for work after that. Plus, regular employees should be given their separation pay.

  26. as per labor law, pwedeng bayaran ng company ng 1 month salary ang employee at hindi na nila papapasukin. dagdag pa yung 1/2 month salary per year of service.

  27. It happened to ABSCBN din before and dinemanda sila ng mga na lay-off, nanalo sa kaso yung mga employess kaya they were paid a huge amount. Some of them transferred to tv5. Ngayon naman sa tv5 nagkakaofferan na ng "package" parang early retirement na. Kapag hindi mo kinuha eh gagawan ka ng dahilan para magkamemo ka at matanggal, kaya avail na lang sila ng cheke para may makuha sila. Nagbabawas na talaga, pati sa news dami tinanggal ni Luchi dahil mga bias daw kay bongbong marcos. Dami din tinanggal na public service programs si wilma galvante like t3.

  29. Notice must be given to DOLE 30 days prior the effectivity so malamang they complied w the requirements of the law. After that, it's legal to serve it.
    Meeting of the minds yan eh. What if the separation package is above what is prescribed by the law and the employee agrees to it, all the more that is enforceable.
    Plain and simple.

  30. Pinagcompare namin ang financial statements ng gma and abs years ago in college. Mas malaki pa net income ng gma noon and mas malaki ang cash pero ang abs mas malaki ang investment on capital assets. Kita naman natin very good investments ng abs kasi ang lawak ng reach nila and ang ganda ng quality ng images.

  31. Hindi lang naman GMA ang nagle lay off. A softdrinks company recently had to cut down hundreds of employees. They were given an early retirement package based on the number of years they've worked for the company. Usually redundancy ang reason and not because nalulugi ang company. Kung bata pa ang na lay off win-win situation yan. Kasi may pera ka na, makakahanap ka pa uli ng work.

  32. Bago mag-comment, magresearch at magbasa:

    Art. 283. Closure of establishment and reduction of personnel. The employer may also terminate the employment of any employee due to the installation of labor-saving devices, redundancy, retrenchment to prevent losses or the closing or cessation of operation of the establishment or undertaking unless the closing is for the purpose of circumventing the provisions of this Title, by serving a written notice on the workers and the Ministry of Labor and Employment at least one (1) month before the intended date thereof. In case of termination due to the installation of labor-saving devices or redundancy, the worker affected thereby shall be entitled to a separation pay equivalent to at least his one (1) month pay or to at least one (1) month pay for every year of service, whichever is higher. In case of retrenchment to prevent losses and in cases of closures or cessation of operations of establishment or undertaking not due to serious business losses or financial reverses, the separation pay shall be equivalent to one (1) month pay or at least one-half (1/2) month pay for every year of service, whichever is higher. A fraction of at least six (6) months shall be considered one (1) whole year.

  33. Walang laban ang employees kung ma-retrench or ma-lay off sila due to bankruptcy, redundancy or losing ang company as long as may separation or severance pay na matatanggap ang employees. Kung wala, they can file a case against GMA.

    Usually kung big company, separation is equivalent to 1 month pay for every year of service.

Sa dami naman kasi ng kompanya ng lopez group of companies pwede nila ipalipalit yung ibang tao sa iba ibang kumpanya kaya merong new ideas. And may dalawang production team for tv and dreamscape at starcreative so marami ang ideas na pumapasok. Hindi solely sa taas ang desisyon sa mga shows so maximize. Sana makabangon ang GMA kasi para may kompetensya pa din. Hehe!

  37. This is given much bigger light because of the company's name. The media is still a business, and I'm pretty sure most companies do this as well. GMA won't have an established reputation if they didn't have the right values and practical people working behind it. They must have chosen the lesser evil, something that would benefit most people.

  38. No use.. Tagal niyan tas magastos pa.. Mauubos lang yung pera niyo...wag nalang tangkilin GMA... Kung nalulugi sila then bawasan mha sweldo ng mga artista at mga ceo. Marami na pera mga yun, kaya naman siguro nila mamuhay kahit bawasan sweldo nila.. Kesa sa mga ibanh empleyado na mas mahirap trabaho baba pa ng sweldo...

  39. hindi naman siguro biro ang magpatakbo ng kumpanya. lalo na kung ganito kalaki at kaestablished. talaga bang iisipin ninyong ginawa ito ng GMA nang hindi pinag-iisipan? i feel sorry for those who got laid off, and i can only imagine what's going on in their heads now that their lives seem to be falling apart. kung meron lang sanang magandang programa ang gobyerno para sa job opportunities dito sa bansa

  44. Ganyan talaga pag tinanggal, on the spot uuwi ka na. The reason is to prevent the employee to make inappropriate actions against the company like sabotage, theft, etc. all companies has the same policy on lay offs. Gozon is a lawyer so he knows the labor code more than the employees. Wag na magaksaya ng laway, accept the separation pay, move forward and find another job. Thats the best way to deal with it.

  46. Kapag redundancy, as long as babayaran ng kumpanya ang "30-day" notice or 1 month pay, walang kaso. Aside from that, the redundant employees must be given an equivalent of 1 month pay for every year of service, plus pro-rated bonuses and leave credit conversion if applicable.

    ReplyDelete
  47. According to the article that I read, the termination will be effective in May, so that's one month when the termination was served. Regular employees were also given a check amounting to their monthly salary x the number of years they served GMA.
