What is the relationship between jeepney and taxi drivers and their operators under the boundary system?

  • In determining the existence of employer-employee relationship, the four-fold test or the two-tiered test may be applied.

  • The relationship between jeepney owners/operators on one hand and jeepney drivers on the other hand under the boundary system is that of employer-employee and not of lessor-lessee.

  • The existence of a vendor-vendee relationship between the operator and the driver under a boundary-hulog system which is essentially a contract to sell does not negate the existence of an employer-employee relationship.
