groups: the just causes under Articles 282 of the Labor Code and
the authorized causes under Articles 283 and 284 of the same
Code. The just causes are: (1) serious misconduct or willful
disobedience of lawful orders in connection with the employee’s
work; (2) gross or habitual neglect of duties; (3) fraud or willful
breach of trust; (4) commission of a crime or an offense against
the person of the employer or his immediate family member or
representative; and, analogous cases. The authorized causes are:
(1) the installation of laborsaving devices; (2) redundancy; (3)
retrenchment to prevent losses; and (4) closing or cessation of
operations of the establishment or undertaking, unless the closing
is for the purpose of circumventing the provisions of law. Article
284 provides that an employer would be authorized to terminate
the services of an employee found to be suffering from any disease
if the employee’s continued employment is prohibited by law or is
prejudicial to his health or to the health of his fellow employees.
Same; Same; Same; Same; Procedural due process requires
that the employer serve the employees to be dismissed two (2)
written notices before the termination of their employment is
effected: (a) the first, to apprise them of the particular acts or
omissions for which their dismissal is sought; and (b) the second,
to inform them of the decision of the employer that they are being
dismissed.—Procedural due process requires that the employer
serve the employees to be dismissed two (2) written notices before
the termination of their employment is effected: (a) the first, to
apprise them of the particular acts or omissions for which their
dismissal is sought; and (b) the second, to inform them of the
decision of the employer that they are being dismissed. In this
case, only one notice was served upon private respondents by
petitioner. It was in the form of a Memorandum signed by the
Manager of the Cooperative dated January 2, 1990 terminating
their services effective December 29, 1989. Clearly, petitioner,
failed to comply with the twin requisites of a valid notice.
Same; Cooperatives; Jurisdiction; Presidential Decree (P.D.)
175 does not provide for a grievance machinery where a dispute or
claim may first be submitted.—Petitioner contends that the labor
arbiter has no jurisdiction to take cognizance of the complaint of
private respondents considering that they failed to submit their
dispute to the grievance machinery as required by P.D. 175
