NLRC four (54) other retrenched employees, filed a complaint for unpaid
'd retrenchment or separation pay against private respondent

ISSUE: Whether or not the 5-day SIL and pro-rated 13th month pay

by providing for retirement pay to qualified private sector employees
in the absence of any retirement plan in the establishment.
