    A Filipino worker recruited by Facilities Management Corporation, a foreign corporation, to work in Wake Island, sought to recover overtime pay and premiums from the corporation. The Court of Industrial Relations ruled in favor of the worker. The corporation appealed, arguing that as a foreign entity not doing business in the Philippines, the CIR lacked jurisdiction. However, the Supreme Court denied the appeal, finding that as the corporation recruited a Filipino worker, it could be sued in Philippine courts for acts committed against that worker.
