Special cases
In addition to the exceptions cited above, there
are other cases where the court may award
separation pay to voluntarily resigning employee.
For example, in Alfaro vs. CA, G.R. No. 140812,
August 28, 2001, the Court ordered the payment of
separation pay despite holding that the employee
voluntarily resign from service, and although such
payment was not mandated under the CBA or
employment
contract.

In both of the above cases, the employer
agreed to give separation pay to the employee as
an incident of the latters resignation, but later on
renege in the performance of such commitment.

Concept
The principle of non-diminution of benefits states
that: any benefit and supplement being enjoyed
by employees cannot be reduced, diminished,
discontinued or eliminated by the employer.[1]
This principle is founded on the Constitutional
mandate to protect the rights of workers and
promote their welfare, and to afford labor full
protection. Said mandate in turn is the basis of
Article 4 of the Labor Code which states that all
doubts in the implementation and interpretation of
this Code, including its implementing rules and
regulations shall be rendered in favor of labor.[2]

REVISED GUIDELINES
ON THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE 13TH MONTH
PAY LAW.
1. Removal of Salary Ceiling.
On August 13, 1986, President Corazon C. Aquino
issued Memorandum Order No. 28 which provides
as follows:
"Section 1 of Presidential Decree No. 851 is hereby
modified to the extent that all employers are
hereby required to pay all their rank-and-file
employees a 13th month pay not later than
December 24 of every year." chan robles virtual

Before its modification by the aforecited
Memorandum Order, P.D. No. 851 excludes from
entitlement to the 13th month pay those
employees who were receiving a basic salary of
more than P1,000.00 a month. With the removal of
the salary ceiling of P1,000.00, all rank and file
employees are now entitled to a 13th month pay
regardless of the amount of basic salary that they
receive in a month if their employers are not
otherwise exempted from the application of P.D.
