The age-old rule governing the relation between labor and capital, or management and employee of a “fair day’s wage for a fair day’s labor” remains as the basic factor in determining employees’ wages.

If there is no work performed by the employee, there can be no wage or pay, unless of course, the laborer was able, willing, and ready to work but was illegally locked out, suspended or dismissed, or otherwise illegally prevented from working.

(Aklan Electric Cooperative, Inc. v. NLRC, G.R. No. 121439, January 25, 2000)
