MANILA After a month of negotiating with the UP administation, 37 dismissed security guards have been reinstated at the University of the Philippines Diliman on April 27.
They were laid off along with more than 20 other security personnels following the turnover of UP’s new security provider Grand Meritus Security Agency Inc. on April 1. Some displaced security guards had been working for UP for as long as two decades.
In a dialogue with Alliance of Contractual Employees (ACE) UP and All UP Workers Alliance last April 16, UP Chancellor Fidel Nemenzo said that UP would negotiate with Grand Meritus for the maximum absorption of security guards into the new agency.
