In Central Philippine Bandag Retreaders, Inc. v. Diasnes,[53] cited in Quiambao v. Manila Electric Company,[54] we discussed the parameters of awarding separation pay to dismissed employees as a measure of financial assistance: To reiterate our ruling in Toyota, labor adjudicatory officials and the CA must demur the award of separation pay based on social justice when an employee's dismissal is based on serious misconduct or willful disobedience; gross and habitual neglect of duty; fraud or willfull breach of trust; or commission of a crime against the person of the employer or his immediate family grounds under Art. 282 of the Labor Code that sanction dismissal of employees.  They must be judicious and circumspect in awarding separation pay or financial assistance as the constitutional policy to provide full protection to labor is not meant to be an instrument to oppress the employers.  The commitment of the Court to the cause of labor should not embarrass us from sustaining the employers when they are right, as here.  In fine, we should be more cautions in awarding financial assistance to the undeserving and those who are unworthy of the liberality of the law.[55] [Emphasis original.  Underscoring supplied]
