Labour Revision / Final Judgment

  1. 1 Whether there existed an employment relationship between the applicants and the respondent
  2. 2 Whether the Commission erred in finding no employment relationship

Ratio Decidendi

The court found that the evidence, particularly the service provision form (D1), established the applicants as casual service providers (kibarua) and not employees. The absence of an employment contract and the nature of payment (per service, not salary) supported the Commission's finding that no employment relationship existed. Thus, the application was dismissed for lack of merit.
