The Supreme Court quashed the appellate court's decision denying overtime pay to a manager forced to work late nights due to poor work organization. The court held that employers, not employees, bear the responsibility to organize work schedules to comply with statutory limits. Consequently, managers cannot be denied overtime compensation when excessive hours result from the employer's failure to properly organize the workplace.
