| In addition, the designation of the payments to petitioner as salaries, is not determinative of the existence of an employer-employee relationship.[35] Salary is a general term defined as a remuneration for services given.[36] Evidence of this fact, in the instant case, was the cash voucher issued in favor of petitioner where it was stated therein that the amount of P20,000.00 was given as petitioner's allowance for the month of December 2004, although it appears from the pay slip that the said amount was his salary for the same period. | |||||

| To determine the existence of an employer-employee relationship, case law has consistently applied the four-fold test, to wit: (a) the selection and engagement of the employee; (b) the payment of wages; (c) the power of dismissal; and (d) the employer's power to control the employee on the means and methods by which the work is accomplished. The so-called "control test" is the most important indicator of the presence or absence of an employer-employee relationship.[12] | |||||
