Dear PAO,

I am working as an office staff in a travel agency in Quezon City. As an office staff, my duty is Monday to Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Recently, my boss has been requiring us to stay beyond 5 p.m. without any explanation and simply said that we need to render overtime work. There were times when, even after completing our tasks, we were still not allowed to leave until our boss gave permission. It seems that he allows us to leave once he is done with his own work. Consequently, there were times that we stayed at the office just waiting for him. I want to know if we are bound to stay at the office even beyond office hours.
