Opinion: An Illegal Transfer, WNU
While it is true that the reassignment or transfer of personnel is within the prerogative of management, it is not absolute. There are legal grounds and rules that must be faithfully observed in order to protect the rights of the workers, otherwise, arbitrary policies implemented by the management could not be held in check or at least regulated by labor laws. Such was the case of the three teachers in the high school department of West Negros University (WNU) who were transferred to the college department by virtue of Memo # 69, S,09-10 issued by Mrs. Cleo Grace T. Hinaut, to Mrs. Antonette Ang, Principal of the Integrated School, the memo was issued on April 28, 2010 by Mrs. Hinaut as the VP for Academic Affairs. The three teachers Mrs. Charito Kaw Chong Huat, Miss Lucy Alayon and Miss Gladys Campillanos are members of the WNU Faculty and Employees Labor Union-PACIWU as alleged by the administration, to have not possessed the qualifications to teach in the high school department, despite the fact that they had been teaching there for a long period of time and it is only now that their qualifications are questioned, because they are not graduates of a Bachelor of Science in Education (BSE) among others.
