Labor Law, 2022 Bar — Question 8

ESSAY

Julian was hired by Index Agency, a licensed manpower and recruitment corporation, which had a Service Agreement with Kainan Resto, a fast food restaurant, for the provision of ancillary and support services. Index Agency assigned Julian to work at Kainan Resto as a cashier and counter clerk, whose duties involved taking customer orders, receiving payments, preparing food orders, and serving food to customers. Julian was accused of short-changing a customer during one transaction. He was immediately dismissed from service by the manager of Kainan Resto. Julian filed a complaint for illegal dismissal against Index Agency and Kainan Resto. In its defense, Kainan Resto argued that Julian was not its employee but that of Index Agency, given that Index Agency is a licensed manpower and recruitment corporation. Is Kainan Resto correct? Explain briefly. (5 points)
