| On this point, the Court, in the case of Bristol Myers Squibb (Phils.), Inc. v. Baban,[28] citing Atlas Fertilizer Corporation v. National Labor Relations Commission,[29] ruled as follows: [A]s a general rule, employers are allowed a wider latitude of discretion in terminating the services of employees who perform functions by which their nature require the employer's full trust and confidence. Mere existence of basis for believing that the employee has breached the trust and confidence of the employer is sufficient and does not require proof beyond reasonable doubt. Thus, when an employee has been guilty of breach of trust or his employer has ample reason to distrust him, a labor tribunal cannot deny the employer the authority to dismiss him. | |||||
