Purpose of Certification Election

The purpose of certification election is to give the employees true representation in their collective bargaining with an employer because certification election is the most democratic and expeditious method by which the laborers can freely determine the union that shall act as their representative in their dealing with the establishment where they are working. It is the most effective way of determining which labor organization can truly represent the working force. (G.R. No. 73504 October 15, 1991)
