Activity Sheet # 10 Importance Of Compensation, Evaluation, Appraisal, Reward

System, Employee Relations And Movement

The minimum wage, legally speaking, is just a wage. It is set by the government to protect

employees/ workers in the low-income bracket from the exploitation by employers.

In a certain cigarette manufacturing company in Tanauan, Jhon and his coworkers agreed to a

wage that was way below the minimum wage, all because there were no other job opportunities or

means of livelihood available to them. It was not a just wage because after spending their earnings on

food, they were left with no means to enjoy life.

Jhon and his coworkers sign a daily record certifying that they receive the required minimum

wage and overtime pay after ten hours of work. So, besides the violation of the minimum wage and

the overtime pay policies, there was also violation in the number of hours of work that they were

required to render.

Although there was a worker’s union in their company, the union leaders, instead of protecting

the workers, connived with management in their illegal practices.

 One day, Jhon, who could no longer bear unfair treatment they received, shot to death the son of the

company owner, who acted as its chief executive officer. Jhon was caught and sentenced to 25 years

of imprisonment.

LEARNING ASSESSMENT

2. Was Jhon fighting for justice and fairness when he shot their executive officer to death?

Explain your answer.

Employees have the right to receive fairness when it comes to giving them their minimum

wage but the study states that the company does not follow the law of giving the minimum to all

employees and they continue to do what is illegal. So,Jhon an employee can no longer withstand the

bad work done to them by the company they work for. He has the right to fight for what is due to him,

equality in giving the minimum wage to him and his fellow employees and give justice to everything

the company does to them, but on the other hand is the taking or resistance of Jhon for their rights

ended in his imprisonment because he shot their executive officer who is assigned to give the

minimum wage to them to death.What he is fighting for is right but his way for it to be resolved is a sin,

a sin that will harm not only his physical being but also his spiritual condition. So ending even though

his goal was right and in the law, he made the mistake of killing the executive officer to fight for their

rights and give justice to everyone.
