Généré par l'IAThe Supreme Court quashed the lower court's judgment, remanding the case for a new decision on the employee's project-based compensation claim. The plaintiff argued that his salary exceeded the internal pay regulation, while the employer claimed his work was defective and thus no bonus was due. The court ruled that the internal pay regulation constitutes a source of law under the Labor Code and must be applied to determine owed wages, regardless of drafting flaws, while also correcting the lower court's improper allocation of the burden of proof.
