QuantaTech Manufacturing, a private plant employing 210 workers, elects an exclusive bargaining representative for its workforce. Management refuses to recognize the union, publicly proclaims a 'no-union' policy, and disciplines two union stewards in retaliation. The workers file a complaint with the NLRC alleging interference with their rights to self-organization and to bargain collectively. (a) Identify the constitutional doctrine at stake and its controlling rule. (b) Distinguish it from any claimed managerial prerogative and whether such prerogative can override constitutional rights. (c) Apply the doctrine to the facts and state the proper remedy under the Constitution and the Labor Code.

Freedom of association and the right to self-organization and to bargain collectively under the 1987 Constitution; the controlling rule is that any acts by the employer that interfere with these rights constitute unfair labor practices, warranting recognition of the EBR and reinstatement with back wages. The State’s police power to regulate industry supersedes private rights, so the employer’s actions can be sustained if they promote industrial peace. The right to strike and peaceful assembly is the sole remedy for labor disputes; employers may suspend workers who participate in strikes without violating constitutional rights. Freedom of speech under the Constitution shields management from liability for disciplining union organizers, since expressing management policy at work is a protected form of speech.
