The law plainly states that 70 percent of the tuition fee increase shall be allotted for the teaching and the
nonteaching personnel; and that the payment of other costs of operation, together with the improvement of the

Zialcita v. Philippine Airlines, RO4-3-2298-76, February 20, 1977
Employment of women
Although Article 132 enjoins the Secretary of Labor to establish standards that will ensure the safety and
health of women employees and in appropriate cases shall by regulation require employers to determine
appropriate minimum standards for termination in special occupations, such as those of flight attendants, it is
logical to presume that, in the absence of said standards or regulations which are yet to be established, the
policy of PAL against marriage is patently illegal.
Apex Mining Co. Inc. v. National Labor Relations Commission, G.R. No. 94951, April 22, 1991
Employment of househelpers
The foregoing definition clearly contemplates such house helper or domestic servant who is employed in
the employer's home to minister exclusively to the personal comfort and enjoyment of the employer's family.
The definition cannot be interpreted to include house help or laundrywomen working in staff houses of a
company.
The criteria is the personal comfort and enjoyment of the family of the employer in the home of said
employer. While it may be true that the nature of the work of a house helper, domestic servant or laundrywoman
in a home or in a company staff house may be similar in nature, the difference in their circumstances is that in
the former instance they are actually serving the family while in the latter case, whether it is a corporation or a
single proprietorship engaged in business or industry or any other agricultural or similar pursuit, service is being
rendered in the staff houses or within the premises of the business of the employer. In such instance, they are
employees of the company or employer in the business concerned entitled to the privileges of a regular
employee.

Iloilo Dock and Engineering Corporation v. Workmens Compensation Commission, et al., G.R. No. L26341, November 27, 1978
Employees compensation and state insurance fund
The general rule in workmen's compensation law known as the "going & coming rule," simply stated, is
that "in the absence of special circumstances, an employee injured in, going to, or coming from his place of
work is excluded from the benefits of workmen's compensation acts." This rule, however, admits of four wellrecognized exceptions, to wit: (1) where the employee is proceeding to or from his work on the premises of his
employer; (2) where the employee is about to enter or about to leave the premises of his employer by way of the
exclusive or customary means of ingress and egress; (3) where the employee is charged, while on his way to or
from his place of employment or at his home, or during his employment, with some duty or special errand
connected with his employment; and (4) where the employer, as an incident of the employment, provides the
means of transportation to and from the place of employment.
Lazo v. Employees Compensation Commission, G.R. No. 78617, June 18, 1980
Employees compensation and state insurance fund
Where an employee, after working hours, attempted to ride on the platform of a service truck of the
company near his place of work, and, while thus attempting, slipped and fell to the ground and was run over by
the truck, resulting in his death, the accident may be said to have arisen out of or in the course of employment,
for which reason his death is compensable. The fact standing alone, that the truck was in motion when the
employee boarded, is insufficient to justify the conclusion that he had been notoriously negligent, where it does
not appear that the truck was running at a great speed.

Employees compensation and state insurance fund
Republic Act 4670, otherwise known as the Magna Charta for Public School Teachers, recognized the
enervating effects of these factors (duties and activities of a school teacher certainly involve physical, mental
and emotional stresses) on the health of school teachers when it directed in one of its provisions that Teachers
shall be protected against the consequences of employment injury in accordance with existing laws. The effects
of the physical and nervous strain on the teachers' health shall be recognized as compensable occupational
diseases in accordance with laws.
