Susugan nito ang Presidential Decree No. 442, o ang Labor Code of the Philippines.
“Article 106 of the bill differentiates job contracting, which is permitted, from labor-only contracting. Under the changes to Article 106, contracting is considered labor-only if the person supplying workers to an employer does not have substantial capital or investment in the form of tools, equipment, machineries, work premises, among others; or the workers recruited and placed by such persons are performing activities which are directly related, indispensable and essential to the principal business of the employer.”
