Retail theft has been in peninsula news for some time. I wish we got a similar amount of coverage of wage theft issues.
- idontwantthis 4y agoHow does wage theft usually work. Do they skim a small amount from each paycheck and hope the employees don’t notice?
- Red_Leaves_Flyy 4y agoThere are countless ways to defraud your employees. Don’t pay their travel time. Don’t pay breaks. Make them work off the clock. Make them buy supplies. Steal their tips. Pay sub minimum wages to criminals the employer can maintain leverage over. Etc.
