  1. Every benefit is automatically identical regardless of its source
  2. The specific benefit entitlement and actual employment category still require proof
  3. Regular seasonal employees have no statutory rights
  4. All office benefits automatically become universal wages
  5. The employer may ignore every applicable benefit law
