Question 18
18. In 2012, Magbanua Hotel (MH) hired Josefa and assigned her to the food and
beverage department. For six consecutive years, Josefa worked five days a week.
However, in 2018, MH, suddenly and without explanation, reduced the regular
workdays of Josefa to two days per week, resulting in the reduction of her take-
home pay. Josefa thus filed a complaint for constructive dismissal. In belying her
claim, MH insisted that there could be no constructive dismissal because Josefa
still continued reporting for work even during the pendency of the case. Was
Josefa constructively dismissed? Decide with reasons.
