2. NLRC has jurisdiction in the case. NASECO cites National Housing Corporation
vs Juco where Court held that there should no longer be any question at this
time that employees of Government-owned or controlled corporations are given
by the civil service law and civil service rules and regulations. Yet, said case
should not be given retroactive effect to cases that arose before its promulgation
on January 17, 1985. To do otherwise would be oppressive to Credo and other
employees similarly situated because prior to the ruling of the said case, the
Court recognized the applicability of the Labor Code and the authority of the
NLRC to exercise jurisdiction over disputed involving terms and conditions of
employment in the GOCCs among them the NASECO. NLRC has jurisdiction
because it is 1987 Constitution that governs at the time of the decision.
