PERLAS-BERNABE, J. |

The Constitution decrees that all workers are entitled to security of tenure. This means that an employer cannot terminate his employee's employment (whether actual or constructive) or otherwise suspend him without any just or authorized cause and without complying with the due process requirements mandated by law. This constitutional and statutory guarantee seeks, in the ultimate, to prevent the capricious exercise by the employer of his power to dismiss.[15] | |||||
