Practice question
A worker gives material notice about recruitment terms to an unrelated traveler at the airport, who has no actual or apparent authority to represent either the foreign principal or recruitment agency. She argues that any Filipino abroad is legally an agent and that the traveler’s knowledge therefore proves notice to the principal. Which is best?
- Nationality alone creates representation
- Every traveler is automatically a recruitment officer
- All information anywhere binds every employer
- The claimed attribution lacks the required agency foundation; unrelated knowledge is not automatically principal knowledge
- The traveler’s silence conclusively establishes every salary claim
