Bankard Employees Union-Workers Alliance Trade Unions v. NLRC

The Bankard Employees Union argued for a salary increase for existing regular employees after Bankard implemented a new salary scale that increased hiring rates and minimum salaries. Bankard denied it had an obligation to grant an across-the-board increase for all employees. The issue is whether this pay disparity between new and existing employees constituted wage distortion requiring Bankard to increase salaries of regular employees as well.

NLRC
Facts:

new employees. Accordingly, the salaries of employees who fell below the new minimum rates were also
adjusted to reach such rates under their levels.
Bankard Employees Union-WATU pressed for an increase in the salary of its old, regular employees, but
Bankard took the position that it had no obligation to grant an across-the-board salary increase.

Issue:
Does wage distortion exist in this situation?
