CABANATUAN CITY - The president of the employees union in Wesleyan University-Philippines, a popular uiversity run by the Methodist, in Cabanatuan City was suspended for 30-days startting September 25, 2006 over charges filed by 12 nursing students.
In an open letter, the officers and members of the Wesleyan University-Philippines, Cabanatuan City’s Faculty Staff Association-Lakas at Gabay ng Mangagagawang Nagkakaisa assailed as “politically motivated” and “unjust” the suspension of Mrs. Corazon C. Gonzales, union president.
The suspension was contained in a memorandum issued by Mrs. Erlinda C. Mones, director of Human Resource Development Department, in “view of the administrative charges or serious misconduct” filed by
several nursing students.
Gonzales was barred from entering the university campus, located at Mabini Ext. , Cabanatuan City, in the duration of the suspension except for purposes of submitting her counter-affidavit, appearing and testifying before the investigating committee and to attend the re-negotiations of collective bargaining agreement between the union and the management panels, the order also said.
But lawyer Guillermo Maglaya, WU-P President, said the group that protests Gonzales' suspension does not really represents the employees' union. "This is only a small number," Maglaya said, saying the suspension order was part of the due process. He said the university is actually giving Gonzales the fair play as she was allowed to attend re-negotiation proceedings on their collective bargaining agreement.
