Practice question: Kasambahay (RA 10361)

Multiple Choice Hard

Practice question

A household employer directs an adult kasambahay to work in the employer's commercial enterprise and insists that only the household's domestic-worker wage rate can apply to that assignment. Section 22 applies to the stipulated nonhousehold work. Which conclusion is correct?
  1. The domestic-worker label always permits payment below the enterprise's applicable minimum wage.
  2. The worker must receive the applicable agricultural or nonagricultural minimum wage for the enterprise assignment under Section 22.
  3. No wage is due because the employer owns both places.
  4. Commercial work can never attract a minimum-wage rule.
  5. The worker automatically becomes owner of the enterprise.
