REYES, J.
In Lawrence v. National Labor Relations Commission,[42] the Court is emphatic that:Considering that Lawrence has already been fired, the belated act of LEP in attempting to show a just cause in lieu of a nebulous one cannot be given a semblance of legality. The legal requirements of notice and hearing cannot be supplanted by the notice and hearing in labor proceedings. The due process requirement in the dismissal process is different from the due process requirement in labor proceedings and both requirements must be separately observed x x x. Thus, LEP's method of "Fire the employee and let him explain later" is obviously not in accord with the mandates of law. x x x.[43]
