RATIO: NO FIXED HOURLY RATE
For these workers it is not feasible to provide a fixed hourly rate of pay or maximum hours of labor. ● Intervenors herein are holding positions of responsibility. One of them is the Secretary of the Board of Directors. Another is the private secretary of the general manager. Another is a public relations officer, and many chiefs of divisions or sections and others are supervisors and overseers. ● HOWEVER, respondent court CIR, after examining carefully their respective functions, duties and responsibilities found that their primary duties do not bear any direct relation with the management of the NAWASA, nor do they participate in the formulation of its policies nor in hiring and firing of the employees
● As a matter of fact, they are required to observe working hours and record their time work and are not free to come and go to their offices, nor move about at their own discretion.
● They do not, therefore, come within the category of "managerial employees" within the meaning of the law and are entitled to the benefits of CA 444.
