Practice question
Several contractors operate under materially different agreements. A Regional Director has proper inspection authority but assumes all workers share the same status based solely on one broad statement. Which lesson follows PLDT?
- The relevant arrangements and employment facts still need substantial-evidence support
- Authority alone proves every worker’s status
- One label necessarily establishes all contracts
- All differing agreements must be ignored
- The employer’s denial automatically proves the opposite
