NATIONAL CONGRESS OF UNIONS IN THE SUGAR INDUSTRY OF THE PHILIPPINES (NACUSIP)-


TUCP, petitioner, vs. DIR. CRESENCIANO B. TRAJANO, Bureau of Labor Relations, Ministry of Labor and
Employment, Manila, FEDERATION OF UNIONS OF RIZAL (FUR)-TUCP, and CALINOG REFINERY
CORPORATION (NASUREFCO), respondents.

FACTS:

PARTIES IN THIS CASE:


Petitioner National Congress of Unions in the Sugar Industry of the Philippines (NACUSIP)-TUCP is the certified
exclusive bargaining representative of the rank and file workers of Calinog Refinery Corporation.
Private respondent 1: Federation of Unions of Rizal (FUR)-TUCP is a labor organization duly registered with the
Department of Labor and Employment.
private respondent 2: Calinog Refineries Employees Union (CREU)-NACUSIP is the certified exclusive bargaining
representative of the rank and file workers of the private respondent Calinog Refinery Corporation by virtue of the
certification election held on March 30, 1981.

Petitioner union filed a petition for deadlock in collective bargaining with the Ministry of Labor and Employment. The
parties agreed to submit the petition for deadlock to compulsory arbitration.

Private respondent FUR-TUCP filed a petition for certification election among the rank and file employees of private
respondent company, alleging that: (1) about forty-five percent (45%) of private respondent company's employees had
disaffiliated from petitioner union and joined private respondent union; (2) no election had been held for the past twelve
(12) months; and (3) while petitioner union had been certified as the sole collective bargaining agent, for over a year it
failed to conclude a collective bargaining agreement with private respondent company. Petitioner union filed a motion to
intervene in the petition for certification election filed by private respondent union.

The Acting Med-Arbiter Pacifico V. Militante dismissed the petition for certification election for lack of merit since the
petition is barred by a pending bargaining deadlock.

Private respondent union filed an appeal to the Bureau of Labor Relations, Manila.

The Bureau of Labor Relations set aside the order of the Acting Med-Arbiter and remanded the case for hearing and
reception of evidence.

On May 2, 1983, Honorable Med-Arbiter Demetrio Correa issued an order in LRD Case No. 4293 giving due course to
the petition of private respondent FUR-TUCP and ordering that an election be held within 20 days from receipt of the
order.
