    12.

    Define the following terms,


    a. Work Day
    A 24-hr period commencing from the time an employee regularly
    starts to work regardless of whether the work is broken or continuous,
    it may not coincide with a calendar day.
    b. Calendar Day
    A 24-hr period commencing at 12 midnight and ending at 11:59 pm.
    It is possible for an employee to work for 2 calendar days.
    c. Overtime
    Work rendered after normal eight (8) hours of work is called
    “overtime work.” d. Undertime
    It is when the employee fails to render the complete 8
    hours of work required by the employer.
    e. Premium Pay
    It refers to the additional compensation required by law for work
    performed within the eight (8) normal hours of work on nonworking
    days, such as rest days and regular and special holidays
    f. Qualified Premium Pay
    It is additional compensation for work performed by the
    employee on a day which falls both on a holiday and a scheduled rest
    day of the employee.
    g. Overtime Pay
    It refers to the additional compensation for work performed
    beyond the eight (8) normal hours of work on a given day. An
    employee is entitled to both premium pay and overtime pay if he
    works on a non-working day and renders overtime work on the same
    day.
    h. Work Week
    It is a week consisting of 168 consecutive hours or 7 consecutive
    24-hour work days, beginning at the same hour and on the same
    calendar day each calendar week.
    i. Reduction of eight-hour working day
    The employer, in the lawful exercise of its prerogative, is not
    prohibited from reducing the 8-hr normal working time per day
    provided that no corresponding reduction is made on the employee’s
    wage or salary equivalent to an 8-hr work day. In instances where the
    number of hours required by the nature of work is less than 8 hours,
    such number of hours should be regarded as the employee’s full
    working day. j. Shortening of work week
    It is an alternative arrangement whereby the normal workweek
    is reduced to less than 6 days but the total number of normal hours
    per week remains at 48 hours. The normal workday is increased to
    more than 8 hours without a corresponding overtime premium. This
    applies as well to 40 or 44-hour workweek firms.
    It may also refer to the reduction of working days by the
    employer, which is valid where the arrangement is resorted to by the
    employer to prevent serious business losses due to causes beyond his
    control. In such a case, the employer may deduct the wages and living
    allowances corresponding to the days taken off, in the absence of an
    agreement specifically providing that a reduction in the number of
    days will not adversely affect the remuneration of the employees.
