The High Court held the Respondent was an employee because the parties' intention, the employer's control mechanisms (including mandated use of programmes to record work), the Respondent's integration into the employer's operations and the structured payment arrangements demonstrated a contract of service; therefore the Director General of Manpower had jurisdiction and the DGM's award of salary arrears and six months' base fee in lieu of notice was correct; the appeal was dismissed.
