This proposal was opposed and rejected by the officers and members of the respondent who were present at the meeting. On July 1, 2005, the parties met, with CCBPI's Manufacturing Manager setting forth the official proposal to stop the work schedule during Saturdays. As Saturday work involved maintenance-related activities, CCBPI would then only schedule the day's work as the need arose for these particular undertakings, particularly on some Saturdays from September to December 2005.

Specifically, the discontinuance was done with the purpose of saving on operating expenses and compensating for the anticipated decreased revenues. ĬCBPI later on informed the respondent that, starting July 2, 2005, Saturday work would no longer be scheduled, with CCBPI citing operational necessity as the reason for the decision. This prerogative was supposedly consistent with the pertinent provisions in the Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) between CCBPI and its employees, which stated that management had the sole option to schedule, work on Saturdays on the basis of operational necessity. In the said policy, several of CCBPI's employees were required to report for work on certain Saturdays to perform a host of activities, usually involving maintenance of the facilities. The conflict arose due to the CCBPI's policy involving Saturday work.
