Can all other civil service employees collectively bargain?
No, not all civil service employees possess the right to collectively bargain with the government. For employees in the civil service not covered by the Corporation Code, their organizational rights are limited. They only have the right to form associations for purposes that are not contrary to law. This distinction is governed by Article 254 Labor Code of the Philippines, which sets the boundaries for public sector organizing. “All other employees in the civil service shall have the right to form associations for purposes not contrary to law.” 01-Jun-26About Nicolas and De Vega Law Offices
