Key legal question
Which divisor must be used to convert a monthly wage into a daily wage for a five-day workweek under Art. 322 OR?
Extracted holding
For a five-day workweek, the monthly wage must be divided by 22; using 26 or 24 was incorrect.
Extracted reasoning
The conversion is a mathematical question. Since the employee worked only five days per week, the common practice in such employment relations is to divide by 22. This corresponds to an average of 21.75 workdays per month (261 workdays per year divided by 12).
