DISCUSSIONS

“I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”


Philippians 4:13

Week 1 Chapter 1: Introduction to Law on Tourism and Hospitality

Introduction:
The order of any business specially affecting the
tourism and hospitality is dependent on the implementation
and observance of a rule, policy, standard, system, and law.
No enterprise or any business entity can exploit the
environment and natural resources incidences to their very
existence without being subjected to the regulations of the
local and national governing authorities.

Meaning: Indi pwedi mag tukod restaurant or hotel,


or any business related to tourism and hospitality nga wala naga-conform sa batas kag pagsulundan.

Law defined.
Is a system of rules that a society or a government develops in
order to deal with crime, business agreements, and social
relationship (Collins, 2018). A rule of conduct or action prescribed
or formally recognized as binding or enforced by controlling
authority (Webster, 2018).

Characteristics of Law
P a g e |5

It is observed from the definitions given that the following element s are present:

3. Promulgated by competent authority (gina-obra kag gina-patupad sang mga ara sa otoridad)
4. It must be observed by all (gina-sunod kag gina-obserbar sang tanan).

Tourism Laws vs Hospitality Laws


Tourism law, is a combination of state, local, and international
laws that control the different facets and functions of the travel
industry.
Example: Si Tokmol taga-Roxas kag gusto niya mag-bakasyon
sa Boracay, need niya sundon ang regulation ukon batas sang Province
of Aklan. Kung gusto niya mag-kadto sa Singapore, ang batas naman
sang Singapore ang iya nga e-observe.

Hospitality law, deals with food service, travel, and


lodging industries. Including laws like contracts, torts and damages,
labor, and a lot more.
Example: Si Tokmol empleyado ni Marites sa iya
restaurant, si Marites obligado nga bayaran si Tokmol sang iya nga
serbisyo sa restaurant (example of contract).

Kinds of Law according to Scope


1. Public Law, applies to all the state or to particular class of persons in the state, with equal force
and obligation.
Example: Political Law, Criminal Law, International Law

2. Private Law, relates to particular class of persons or things.

Constitution defined.
Constitution is the basic principles and laws of a nation,
state, or social group that determine the powers and duties of the

b. United Nations Convention for the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) took effect on November 16,
1982.

Customs and Traditions as Bases of Law


Customs and traditions are also considered as bases of law which also form part of the Filipino
legal heritage as enshrined in the 1987 Constitution. (Read “The Indigenous Peoples’ Rights Act of 1997”,
Civil Code Article 6, Par. 2)

National Territory (Article 1, 1987 Philippine


Constitution)
The national territory comprises the Philippine
archipelago, with all the islands and waters
embraced therein, and all other territories over
which the Philippines has sovereignty or jurisdiction,
consisting of its terrestrial, fluvial and aerial
domains, including its territorial sea, the seabed, the
subsoil, the insular shelves, and other submarine
areas. The waters around, between, and connecting
the islands of the archipelago, regardless of their
breadth and dimensions, form part of the internal
waters of the Philippines.

Compositions of the Philippine Territory


1. Philippine Archipelago including internal waters
2. All territories in which the Philippines has sovereignty or jurisdiction

Different domains in the Philippine Territorial Jurisdiction


1. Aerial (air)
2. Terrestrial (land)
3. Fluvial (water)

Three Inherent Powers of the Government


a. Police Power. The power to regulate laws and properties for public
purpose.
Example: Kaya sang gobyerno e-pasara ang isa ka company kung
mapamatud-an sang gobyerno nga may violation ini kag may
malain nga dulot sa publiko.
P a g e |7

b. Power of Eminent Domain. The power to forcibly acquire private


property for public purpose after payment of just compensation.

establishment nga ara sa kilid sang dalan para sa road-widening
project, pero need danay bayaran sang gobyerno ang tag-iya sang
establishment.

c. Power of Taxation. The power of the government to acquire


revenues. Example: Kung mag-open ikaw sang business, isa sa mga
continuing requirement is ang pagbayad sang tax.

Bill of Rights and the Tourism and


Hospitality Sector
Bill of Rights are enshrined in Article 3
of the 1987 Philippine Constitution. This is
to protect the rights of the people against
infringement from public officials and
private citizens.

Section 1 of the Bill of Rights: “No


person shall be deprived of life, liberty, or
property without due process of law, nor
shall any person be denied the equal
protection of the laws.”
Application: Any employee cannot be dismissed from work or employment without being
notified of the offense he had committed. He must be given reasonable time to explain his side. (See the
case of Maranaw Hotel and Resort Corporation vs. NLRC)

Section 2 of the Bill of Rights: “a. the privacy of communication and correspondence shall be
inviolable except upon lawful order of the court, or when public safety or order requires otherwise, as
prescribed by law.” “b. any evidence obtained in violation of this or the preceding section shall be
inadmissible for any purpose in any proceeding.”
Application: Si Tokmol upod iya nga kabit nga si Marites nag check-in sa SUGOD Motel. After
nila check-in nag-sunod si Tokneneng, ang legal nga asawa ni Tokmol. Gin-pamangkot ni Tokneneng ang
front desk officer sang room number ni Tokmol kag ni Marites. Kung ikaw ang front desk officer, ihatag
mo bala ang room number?
Answer: NO. In conformance to Section 2, par. A, Art. 3 of the 1987 Constitution. Unless
anchored with a necessary order coming from the court. Information that may be derived thereat
should be treated with confidentiality both in the point of law and business. In addition, the R.A. 10173
P a g e |8

otherwise known as Data Privacy Act of 2012 is emphatic on the confidentiality of information for the
protection of customers.

Section 6 of the Bill of Rights: “The liberty of abode and of changing the same within the limits
prescribed by law shall not be impaired except upon lawful order of the court. Neither shall the right to
travel be impaired except in the interest of national security, public safety, or public health, as may be
provided by law.”
Application: Si Tokmol gusto niya mag-kadto sa Boracay para mag-bakasyon, kaso hambal sang
IATF kag DILG sa Province of Aklan, bawal mag-sulod sa province ang tanan nga, domestic and foreign
tourists by virtue of a Local Policy on Fighting Against Covid-19 Pandemic. Pwedi bala e-reklamo ni
Tokmol ang Province of Aklan for violating his right to travel under Section 6, Art. 3 of the 1987
Constitution?
Answer: NO. The right to travel cannot be impaired EXCEPT in the interest of national security,
public safety, or public health, as maybe provided by law. The government’s Police Power applies.

acquire or to perfect their Philippine citizenship.

Modes of Acquiring Citizenship

relationship. Example: Kung anu ang citizenship ni Nanay kag Tatay mo, muna man ang
citizenship mo.
2. Jus soli (right of soil). It means that the citizenship of a person is determined by the place of
birth. Example: Bisan imo Nanay isa ka Filipino, pero kung sa California ikaw gin-bata, imo
citizenship is American.
3. Naturalization. It is a process whether judicial or administrative by which a state places the
imprint of a native citizen when he adopts an alien and gives him the imprint and endowment of
P a g e |9

a citizen of that country. Example: Application for Green Card (Permanent Residency in the USA)

bound to perform the obligation. (muni sa ang contract either formal or informal nga naga-
bind sa active kag passive object)

Sources of Obligation
Article 1157 of the Civil Code of the Philippines
enumerates the sources of obligation, to wit:
1. Obligations arising from the law. Example:
Obligasyon sang asawa ang pag-hatag
support and respect sa iya asawa. Pagbayad
sang tax sang isa ka taxpayer is also an
obligation as provided by the law.

2. Obligations arising from contracts. Example:


Kung nagpa-cater si Tokmol sa isa ka caterer
para sa iya nga birthday kay may ginpirmahan
sila nga kontrata para sa serbisyo sang
catering, obligasyon sang caterer nga e-
perform ang tanan nga ara sa kontrata.

nga tubig ang lababo sang restaurant kay para makuha ang higko, pero sakto man nga
naglabay si Tokneneng kag sa iya nagkadto ang mainit nga tubig. Bisan indi sang hungod,
obligasyon gyapon ni Tokmol ang magbayad sang damages tungod sang injury nga nakuha ni
Tokneneng.

Diligence Needed
Article 1163 of the Civil Code of the Philippines provides that every person with obligation to
give something is also obligated to take care of it with the proper diligence of a good father of a family,
unless the law or the stipulation of the parties requires another standards of care.
Explain: Para maka-likaw sa mas dako nga obligasyon, kung anu ang gin pahulam sa imo, dapat
alagaan mo kaangay sang pag-alaga kag pag-protekta sang isa ka amay sa iya pamilya.

Other important Civil Code Provisions necessary in the conduct of Hospitality Business
Article 1169, those obliged to deliver or to do something incur in delay from the time the obligee
judicially or extra-judicially demands from them the fulfilment of their obligation.

However, the demand by the creditor shall not be necessary in order that delay may exist:

1. When the obligation or the law expressly so declares; or


2. When from the nature and the circumstances of the obligation it appears that the designation of the
time when the thing is to be delivered or the service is to be rendered was a controlling motive for
the establishment of the contract; or
3. When demand would be useless, as when the obligor has rendered it beyond his power to perform. In
reciprocal obligations, neither party incurs in delay if the other does not comply or is not ready to
comply in a proper manner with what is incumbent upon him. From the moment one of the parties
fulfils his obligation, delay by the other begins. (1100a)

ART. 1170. Those who in the performance of their obligations are guilty of fraud, negligence or
delay, and those who in any manner contravene the tenor thereof, are liable for damages.

action for future fraud is void.

following modes:

ang imo utang ukon nabalik mo
na ang imo ginhulam

b. Loss of the thing due. Explain:


Nagpa-cater ikaw para sa imo
birthday, pero antes mag start ang event nagbunok ang ulan kag nagbagyo. Naban-os na ang
pagkaon nga gin prepare sang caterer. Wala na sang obligasyon ang caterer nga luto-an pa
ikaw liwat kay ang pagkadula sang pagkaon is beyond his capacity and it was caused by a
fortuitous event (natural cause). Indi mo pwedi sukton ang caterer sang imo ginasto.

c. Condonation or remission. Explain: Gin patawad ikaw sang imo nga gin-utangan or gin
hulaman, or instead nga pabayaron ikaw hambal sang nagpahulam sa imo nga hatag nalang
niya ato.

d. Compensation. Explain: Nahulam ikaw sa imo bestfriend sang 100 pesos para ebakal nimo load.
Sunod adlaw, nagpabulig imo bestfriend sa imo sang iya assignment kag hambal niya, indi mo
na pagbayaran ang imo utang nga 100 kay gin buligan mo man siya sang iya assignment.
Regardless kung anu iya score sa assignment, importante na compensate mo na ang imo nga
obligation.

e. Novation. Explain: Gin-kuha ikaw nga singer sa kasal kag ginbayaran ka na sang wedding
planner antes ang kasal. Unfortunately, wala nadayon ang kasal, pero instead nga bawion ang
ginbayad sa imo, hambal sang wedding planner, dira nalang na ang bayad kay makanta ka

Week 4 Chapter 4: The Actual Workplace


Introduction
Hospitality and Tourism students are
expected to have a clear understanding of some
basic concepts of law that they might probably
encounter in their future work industry. It is in
this connection that the following concepts of law
affecting employment are discussed.

Importance Concepts of Law affecting employment


Labor law includes all the rules of law governing the conditions under which persons may work
under the control of other persons called employers. Relevant to this are the concepts of labor
standards and labor relations laws governing hours of work, weekly rest periods, minimum wage rates,
unfair labor practices, strikes and lockouts.

Labor Standards vs Labor Relations


Labor standards prescribes the term and conditions of employment as affecting wages or
monetary benefits, hours of work, cost of living allowances, occupational health, safety and welfare of
the workers. Example: rate sang sweldo dapat tugma sa minimum wage
P a g e | 26

Labor relations is used to denote all matters arising out of employer-employee relationship
involving the concerted action on the part of the workers which is usually related with collective
bargaining and negotiation process. Example: kung paano tratuhon sang employer and employee

Classifications of Labor Laws


a. Protective legislation. Is designed to protect the weaker party to the employment contract.
Example: Anti-Sexual Harassment Law, Child Labor Law
b. Welfare or Social Legislation. Is intended to remove or reduce the insecurity of the workers
while the latter is not at work due to hazards arising from employment. Example: SSS Law, GSIS
Law, PhilHealth Law
c. Diplomatic legislation. Is designed to settle labor disputes through pacific modes. Example:
Laws providing for a conciliation, mediation, grievance machinery or arbitration
d. Administrative legislation. Creates labor bodies or agencies for administrative purposes.
Example: POEA, DOLE, NLRC, or CSC
e. Labor relations legislations. Prescribe minimum requirements relating to wages, hours of work,
cost of living allowances, occupational health, safety and welfare of the workers.
f. Labor standards legislation. Prescribe minimum requirements relating to wages, hours of work,
cost of living allowances, occupational health, safety and welfare of the workers.

Significant Constitutional Provisions on Employment


Section 3, Article 13 of the 1987 Philippine Constitution. The State shall afford full protection to labor,
local and overseas, organized and unorganized, and promote full employment and equality of
employment opportunities for all.

It shall guarantee the rights of all workers to self-organization, collective bargaining and negotiations,
and peaceful concerted activities, including the right to strike in accordance with law. They shall be
entitled to security of tenure, humane conditions of work, and a living wage. They shall also participate
in policy and decision-making processes affecting their rights and benefits as may be provided by law.

The State shall promote the principle of shared responsibility between workers and employers and the
preferential use of voluntary modes in settling disputes, including conciliation, and shall enforce their
mutual compliance therewith to foster industrial peace.
P a g e | 27

The State shall regulate the relations between workers and employers, recognizing the right of labor to
its just share in the fruits of production and the right of enterprises to reasonable returns to
investments, and to expansion and growth.

Relationship determinants between employer and employee relationship (Four-Fold Test)


There is employer-employee relationship if the following are all present:
a. Selection of employee
b. Payment of wages
c. Power to dismiss
d. Power to control employee’s conduct

Types of employment
The type of employment may be determined by their nature and existence of activities that they
are compelled to do so.
a. Regular or permanent employment
Labor Code, Article 294. Regular employees by nature of work, that is, those who are engaged
to perform activities which are usually necessary or desirable in the usual business or trade of
the employer. Regular employees by years of service, that is, those who have rendered at least
one year of service, whether continuous or broken, with respect to the activity in which they are
employed.
b. Fixed-period employment. While not specifically mentioned in Article 294, fixed-period
employment is recognized under the Civil Code, pursuant to the freedom of parties to fix the
duration of the contract, whatever its object. These fixed-term employment contracts are not
limited to seasonal work or specific projects with predetermined completion dates; also
contemplated are employment arrangements whereby the parties have assigned a specific date
of termination.
c. Project employment. A project employee is one whose employment has been fixed for a
specific project or undertaking, the completion or termination of which has been determined at
the time the employee is engaged (Labor Code, Article 294). It is not sufficient that an employee
is hired for a specific project or phase of work. There must also be a determination of, or a clear
agreement on, the completion or termination of the project at the time the employee is
engaged.
d. Casual employment. There is casual employment where an employee is engaged to perform a
job, work or service which is merely incidental to the business of the employer, and that job,
work or service is for a definite period made known to the employee at the time of engagement
(Implementing Rules of the Labor Code, Book VI, Rule I, section 5(b)). A casual employee is one
whose work is neither regular, project or seasonal.
e. Seasonal employment. Seasonal workers perform work that is seasonal in nature and are
employed only for the duration of one season (Labor Code, Article 294).
P a g e | 28

Rights of employees
The Bureau of Working Conditions, a staff
department of the Department of Labor and
Employment, compiled a list of Basic Rights that every
worker is entitled to. These rights ensure the safety and
health of all workers.
1. EQUAL WORK OPPORTUNITIES FOR ALL
The State shall protect labor, promote full
employment, provide equal work opportunity
regardless of gender, race, or creed; and regulate
relations between employees and employers.
2. SECURITY OF TENURE
Every employee shall be assured security of tenure. No employee can be dismissed from work
except for a just or authorized cause, and only after due process.
Just cause refers to any wrongdoing committed by an employee; authorized cause refers to economic
circumstances that are not the employee’s fault.
3. WORK DAYS AND WORK HOURS
An employee must be paid their wages for all hours worked. If their work hours fall between
10:00 p.m. and 6:00 a.m., they are entitled to night shift pay in addition to their pay for regular work
hours. If they work over eight hours a day, they are entitled to overtime pay.
4. WEEKLY REST DAY

sickness or death through safe and healthful working conditions.
10. RIGHTS TO SELF-ORGANIZATION AND COLLECTIVE BARGAINING

union, free from interference of their employer or the government. All workers may join a union for the
purpose of collective bargaining and is eligible for union membership on the first day of their
employment.
Collective bargaining is a process between two parties, namely the employer and the union, where the
terms and conditions of employment are fixed and agreed upon. In collective bargaining, the two parties
also decide upon a method for resolving grievances. Collective bargaining results in a contract called a
Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA).
