Corporate Governance : Scope and Legal Frameworkdevaki57
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
MEANING
Corporate Governance refers to the way in which companies are governed and to what purpose. It identifies who has power and accountability, and who makes decisions. It is, in essence, a toolkit that enables management and the board to deal more effectively with the challenges of running a company.
Lifting the Corporate Veil. Power Point Presentationseri bangash
"Lifting the Corporate Veil" is a legal concept that refers to the judicial act of disregarding the separate legal personality of a corporation or limited liability company (LLC). Normally, a corporation is considered a legal entity separate from its shareholders or members, meaning that the personal assets of shareholders or members are protected from the liabilities of the corporation. However, there are certain situations where courts may decide to "pierce" or "lift" the corporate veil, holding shareholders or members personally liable for the debts or actions of the corporation.
Here are some common scenarios in which courts might lift the corporate veil:
Fraud or Illegality: If shareholders or members use the corporate structure to perpetrate fraud, evade legal obligations, or engage in illegal activities, courts may disregard the corporate entity and hold those individuals personally liable.
Undercapitalization: If a corporation is formed with insufficient capital to conduct its intended business and meet its foreseeable liabilities, and this lack of capitalization results in harm to creditors or other parties, courts may lift the corporate veil to hold shareholders or members liable.
Failure to Observe Corporate Formalities: Corporations and LLCs are required to observe certain formalities, such as holding regular meetings, maintaining separate financial records, and avoiding commingling of personal and corporate assets. If these formalities are not observed and the corporate structure is used as a mere façade, courts may disregard the corporate entity.
Alter Ego: If there is such a unity of interest and ownership between the corporation and its shareholders or members that the separate personalities of the corporation and the individuals no longer exist, courts may treat the corporation as the alter ego of its owners and hold them personally liable.
Group Enterprises: In some cases, where multiple corporations are closely related or form part of a single economic unit, courts may pierce the corporate veil to achieve equity, particularly if one corporation's actions harm creditors or other stakeholders and the corporate structure is being used to shield culpable parties from liability.

5. FIXED-TERM Employment
A fixed-term contract is specifically
used only for the fixed term it offers.
For example, a replacement teacher
may be contracted for a fixed-term,
say, a period of one year, to
temporarily take the place of a
permanent teacher who went on a one-
year study leave…
6. FIXED-TERM Employment (cont.)
The fixed-term contract is valid in that case. After
one year, the contract or engagement of the
substitute teacher can be ended, precisely
because he was contracted only to be a substitute
for one year. The substitute teacher does not
become a probationary employee as he was never
employed on probationary basis in the first place.
His employment is for a specific purpose with
particular focus on the term and with every intent
to end his teaching relationship with the school
upon expiration of this term.
7. PROBATIONARY Employment
In the academe, when we say that an employee
is “on probation,” as a general rule, two
circumstances must concur (meaning, both
must be present):
1) he/she is still within the fixed-term, 3-year
probationary period; AND
2) the employee is still being evaluated if
he/she will meet the regularization standards
set by the school, which were made known to
the employee during his engagement…
8. PROBATIONARY Employment (cont.)
Thus, when the school opts NOT TO REGULARIZE
the employee, the school should not only say that
the contract would no longer be renewed or that the
probationary contract already expired. Rather, the
school must have grounds not to regularize the
employee. More to the point -- (1) the ground must
be that the probationary employee failed to meet
the regularization standards (e.g., not passing
LET); and (2) the regularization standards must
have been made known to the employee at the
start of his employment…
9. PROBATIONARY Employment (cont.)
Other than the usual performance standards
required to be met by Probationary Teachers,
the school may additionally impose stricter
performance standards, like attendance or
report compliance standards.
10. BOTTOMLINE:
A school can no longer have a "fixed-term
contract" with the provision that the "contract
shall automatically expire on the date
indicated herein without need of further
notice."
You can still sever your employment ties with
the concerned employees, but the ground
must be that the probationary employees
failed to meet the regularization standards or
other standards set by the school…
11. BOTTOMLINE (cont.):
The school cannot simply reason out that it is
no longer renewing the contract or that the
probationary contract already expired.
Incidentally, it is perfectly legal to lay off
probationary teachers if the school does not
have enough students for a certain SY.
Termination of employment on this basis is an
authorized cause under the Labor Code. (See
Art. 283 of the Labor Code)
12. Second Case:
CHERYLL SANTOS LEUS vs.
ST. SCHOLASTICA'S COLLEGE WESTGROVE
and/or SR. EDNA QUIAMBAO, OSB,
(G.R. 187226, January 28, 2015)
SINGLE TEACHER HAVING
PRE-MARTIAL SEXUAL
RELATIONS AND GETTING
PREGNANT OUT OF
WEDLOCK
13. ST. SCHOLASTICA'S COLLEGE WESTGROVE
(G.R. 187226, January 28, 2015)
Facts:
Cheryll Santos Leus, an employee of
St. Scholastica's College - Westgrove
(SSCW), was found to have committed
pre-marital sexual relations with his
boyfriend and eventually got pregnant
out of wedlock.
14. ST. SCHOLASTICA'S COLLEGE WESTGROVE
(G.R. 187226, January 28, 2015)
Facts (cont.):
SSCW dismissed the employee for "disgraceful
or immoral conduct," which is a just cause for
termination of employment under the 1992
Manual of Regulation for Private Schools
(MRPS).
15. ST. SCHOLASTICA'S COLLEGE WESTGROVE
(G.R. 187226, January 28, 2015)
Issue: Can a Catholic School lawfully
dismiss an employee on the grounds of
premarital sexual relations and pregnancy
out of wedlock?
Decision:
Dismissal was illegal.
16. ST. SCHOLASTICA'S COLLEGE WESTGROVE
(G.R. 187226, January 28, 2015)
Decision (cont.):
Even if employee’s indiscretion is against
Catholic Church teachings, prevailing
norms of conduct do not consider it as
disgraceful or immoral.
“(Public and secular) morality, as defined
under the law, is different from religious
morality.”
17. ST. SCHOLASTICA'S COLLEGE WESTGROVE
(G.R. 187226, January 28, 2015)
Decision (cont.):
“There is no law which penalizes an unmarried
mother by reason of her sexual conduct or
proscribes consensual sexual activity between
two unmarried persons. Such conduct is not
denounced by public and secular morality. It
may be an unusual arrangement, but it certainly
is not disgraceful or immoral within the
contemplation of the law.”
18. ST. SCHOLASTICA'S COLLEGE WESTGROVE
(G.R. 187226, January 28, 2015)
Decision (cont.):
“Premarital relations between two
consenting adults who have no impediment
to marry each other, and consequently
conceiving a child out of wedlock, gauged
from a purely public and secular view of
morality, does not amount to a disgraceful or
immoral conduct under Section 94 of the
1992 MRPS.”
19. ST. SCHOLASTICA'S COLLEGE WESTGROVE
(G.R. 187226, January 28, 2015)
Decision (cont.):
“Further… SSCW, at the time of the controversy,
does not have any policy or rule against an
employee who engages in premarital sexual
relations and conceives a child as a result
thereof. There being no valid basis in law or
even in SSCW’s policy and rules, SSCW’s
dismissal of the petitioner is despotic and
arbitrary and thus not a valid exercise of
management prerogative.”

(DepEd Order No. 40, s. 2012)
Aim: to promote a zero-tolerance policy
for any act of child abuse, exploitation,
violence, discrimination, bullying and
other related offenses
40. Why a Child Protection Policy?
A BASELINE STUDY ON VIOLENCE
AGAINST CHILDREN IN PUBLIC
SCHOOLS showed the following:
41. 3 out of 10 children in Grades 1-3 and
almost 5 out of 10 from high school
experienced physical violence (such as
pinching and hitting) committed by
teachers;
4 out of 10 children in Grades 1-3 and 7
out of 10 in higher grade levels experienced
verbal abuse by their teachers;
42. 36.53 % of children in Grades 4-6 and
42. 88% of high school students
experienced verbal sexual violence in
school
11.95% of children in Grades 4-6 and
17.60% of high school students have
experienced inappropriate touching.
43. And then there are also those coming from
PEERS
