₱1,750.00
The template provided will assist employers / companies in properly and validly executing the termination of probationary employees. (Note: There is a sample Notice of Termination for Failure to Qualify / of Probationary Employee below this guide)
Termination of probationary employment is a technical matter under the Philippine law. There are specific rules applicable only to probationary employees which if confused with all others may cause issues to the employer or the company.
Under Art. 296 of the Labor Code, as amended, a probationary employment shall not exceed six (6) months from the date the employee started working, unless it is covered by an apprenticeship agreement stipulating a longer period. The services of an employee who has been engaged on a probationary basis may be terminated for a just cause or when he fails to qualify as a regular employee in accordance with reasonable standards made known by the employer to the employee at the time of his engagement. An employee who is allowed to work after a probationary period shall be considered a regular employee.

Section 6 (d) of the Implementing Rules of Book VI, Rule I of the Labor Code provides that there is probationary employment where the employee, upon his engagement, is made to undergo a trial period during which the employer determines his fitness to qualify for regular employment based on reasonable standards made known to him at the time of engagement.
In the case of Agustin vs. Alphaland Corporation, [G.R. No. 218282, September 09, 2020] the Supreme Court (SC) held that in all cases of probationary employment, the employer shall make known to the employee the standards under which he will qualify as a regular employee at the time of his engagement. Where no standards are made known to the employee at that time, he shall be deemed a regular employee.
Hence, to safely terminate a probationary employee, there has to be a probationary employment contract where it is clearly stated that the employer / company has made known to the employee the standards under which he will qualify as a regular employee at the time of his engagement. Further, that failure on his part to meet such standards, the employment shall be terminated for failure to qualify.
Reasonable standards shall refer to those measures which the employer will use as basis for qualification. These may include standards on performance, behavior, cooperation, punctuality, etc.
Assuming that these standards are present and there are valid stipulations in the Contract for Probationary Employment, the sample Notice of Termination for Failure to Qualify (template) will serve the purpose

Guide on Employee Compensation and Benefits Vol. 2
2.49 out of 5₱475.00Title: Guide on Employee Compensation and Benefits Vol. 2
Just how much should the company give as bonus? Just how many months of bonus should the company give without violating the law? If the company pays Christmas Bonus is it still required to pay 13th month pay? How about 14th and 15th month pay, should the company pay them also?
These are some of the perplexing questions that a typical HR practitioner encounters in his work. Most often, it is resolved in favor of the employees resulting in increased manpower cost on the part of the company.
The rules on 13th month pay and Christmas Bonus are discussed in this book. When to pay them and when not to are explained using the law and jurisprudence. Companies are not required to pay 14th, 15th month pay, and so forth, unless they are stipulated already in the CBA or any contract for that matter. But they are not legally mandated benefits.
How about productivity incentive bonuses, signing bonus, etc.? This book also offers explanation why some should be paid and the rest should not be.
Then comes the issue on leaves. Question like is there such thing as vacation leave in the Labor Code? Why can’t I find it? There is none because the Labor Code only provides for service incentive leave. There are other leave benefits discussed in this work like paternal, paternity and for women who are victims of violence.
This book also deals with issues on
- employee cash bonds, deposits
- authorized deductions
- the rules on employee compensation for disability, sickness, etc.

This work discusses the labor standards most particularly the exceptive rules where most practitioners are often blindsided. The rules and doctrines are tackled with illustrations and sample computations. Presentation of pay computations proceeds from the ordinary day, regular holiday, special day, and rest day or a combination of both holidays and rest days. These affects the daily rate, overtime, and nightshift differential.
There are relevant Supreme Court decisions where the high court interprets crucial areas of compensation. Rules on successive regular holidays are shown with example. Also, illustrative cases for overtime and nightshift differential are shown using different hours worked such as 2-hour, 4-hour, or even 8-hour OT and nightshift with computations when these coincide or concur on the same day.
The author also delineates the impact of benefits when the clock strikes 12:00 midnight such as on overtime, holiday pay, etc. This is particularly crucial for those with call center operations. Also discussed are company-initiated benefits rule, management prerogative to require overtime work, rule on travel time, brownout and other time-related issues.
New laws and rules are correlated with existing ones in the Labor Code such as the lactation period, primer on expanded maternity leave law (with sample salary differential computation), DO 178 and DO 184 on breaks mandated for employees who need to stand or sit for too long at work and the telecommuting act which affects the hours of work depending on the arrangement between the employer and employee.At the end of the day, compensation and benefits is an interesting area of HR/Labor practice. The key to harmony is understanding of the rules and it starts with acquisition of knowledge.
