What happens if an employer terminates a learnership training after two months without the learner’s fault?
The law powerfully protects learners from arbitrary dismissal near the end of their training period to secure their fundamental employment rights. If a learner has been allowed or suffered to work during the first two months, they gain specific, elevated legal protections. If the training is terminated by the employer before the end of the stipulated period through no fault of the learners, a significant change in employment status abruptly occurs. Under these exact circumstances, all such learners shall be legally deemed as regular employees, as mandated by Article 75 Labor Code of the Philippines. “…All learners who have been allowed or suffered to work during the first two (2) months shall be deemed regular employees if training is terminated by the employer before the end of the stipulated period through no fault of the learners.” 31-May-26About Nicolas and De Vega Law Offices
