About this document
Burden of Proof in Illegal Dismissal by Paolo Miguel Arquero is a document available to read on EtoBox.
BCPI dismissed Gurango for allegedly engaging in a fistfight with a security guard. However, BCPI failed to provide substantial evidence to prove the dismissal was for just cause. Gurango consistently denied involvement in any fight and provided corroborating evidence. The labor arbiter and NLRC found Gurango credible and ruled the dismissal illegal, which the Supreme Court upheld, saying BCPI did not meet its burden of proof to show just cause.
