Title
An Assessment on the Favorability of Women in Present Labor Laws

II. Rationale

Feminism has become one of the most celebrated issues in the limelight today. As
years pass by, the fight of womens rights is going well with regards to the granting
of opportunities and protection in our country. The women employees in the
Philippines are doing very well. Many of them are occupying top corporate
positions, like that of a president, CEO, general manager, directors, and managers. In
deed, the Philippine legislative landscape has seen some major improvements with
respect to womens rights in the last two decades, and the environment seems to
have changes a lot for women. They are given equal opportunity, and even a favored
and preferential treatment, when labor and social legislation are to be primarily
considered.

III. Statement of the Problem

It has been said that the gender discrimination in the Philippines is in reverse. The
women are the favored ones. They are afforded much protection to the extent of
