In Philips Industrial Development, Inc. v. NLRC,[17] this Court held that petitioner's "division secretaries, all Staff of General Management, Personnel and Industrial Relations Department, Secretaries of Audit, EDP and Financial Systems" are confidential employees not included within the rank-and-file bargaining unit.[18] Earlier, in Pier 8 Arrastre & Stevedoring Services, Inc. v. Roldan-Confesor,[19] we declared that legal secretaries who are tasked with, among others, the typing of legal documents, memoranda and correspondence, the keeping of records and files, the giving of and receiving notices, and such other duties as required by the legal personnel of the corporation, fall under the category of confidential employees and hence excluded from the bargaining unit composed of rank-and-file employees.[20] |
