CASE STUDY
Jojo Santos, 24 yrs old, is an accounting clerk at Sisayan’s Enterprises. Jojo has been with the
company for more than three years.
Arriving from his lunch break, he had bought a bottle of inexpensive rum for his friend’s
gathering later at his house. He showed the bottle to the security guard, wanting to leave the bottle at
the door, but the guard motioned him to bring it with him.
During his afternoon break, Jonald, one of his friends and officemate, came along and saw bottle
from under Jojo’s desk, immediately opened it, and jokingly offered Jojo. Jojo gamely obliged and also
jokingly acted like drinking from the bottle. Just then, Anthony, a supervisor from another section,
appeared from nowhere and accused Jojo of drinking within the company premises and during work
hours. Jojo thought he would be reprimanded in the afternoon but it never came.
However, unknown to Jojo, Anthony approached Jojo’s supervisor and recounted the story.
Jojo’s supervisor did not bother to ask the side of Jojo as he considered the account of Anthony as
sufficient evidence.
The next day, Jojo was surprised to see his termination paper on the desk advising him to get his
last salary from the cashier. Jojo then sought the assistance of their labor union.
