Computation of Backwages for Illegally Dismissed Probationary Employees (C.P. Reyes Hospital et al., v. Barbosa)

In the case of C.P. Reyes Hospital et al., vs. Barbosa, G.R. No. 228357, April 16, 2024, the Supreme Court held that illegally dismissed probationary employees, like regular employees, are entitled to backwages up to their actual reinstatement.

In case reinstatement is proven, to be infeasible due to strained relations between the employer and the employee and other analogous causes, backwages shall be computed from the time compensation was withheld up to the finality of the Decision.
