Hi,

I was hired in a Technology Company in Metro Manila as a tester but after 5 months the management selected 10 employees (testers) and decided to transfer us to other projects not related to testing. Worst, we are being placed as a call center agents (voice).

My question is that is this allowed even if what I signed in a contract was to be a tester and not a call center agent?

Can I force the company to have a bargaining agreement instead and pay me according to " redundancy program "?

Thank you and more power!

Is there any change in your rank, salary, benefits, etc? Is any of it diminished? If so, it may be considered as constructive dismissal.

...NO. I ask the HR if I will transfered to a call center would my salary be aligned to people working in that department..
The HR says NO-because it was just a lateral transfer.

but if this is clearly not the job description in your contract you can contest it. Aside from the fact that you are not a call center agent.
