- lp0_on_fire 4y agoIt's not about "offering" enough money it's about companies that are deliberately classifying employees as "managers" when they're anything but for the purposes of avoiding having to pay the employees overtime.
- Xeoncross 4y agoIt's just semantics, you're not compelled to stay and work for someone who is low-balling you.
- willcipriano 4y agoThe people aren't compelled to let you to continue to peaceably do business in their country if you don't wish to follow their laws.
- NegativeK 4y agoEmployers can just fire people who falsify time sheets. Or take money from the register.
- adrr 4y agoAnd they can have the employee prosecuted. Just let the inverse happen when employers steal from employees.
- LawTalkingGuy 4y agoThe classification fraud is a crime. It's also tax fraud because you're understating proper income partly to avoid paying taxes on it. This is far from simply offering a low wage from the beginning.
- lostlogin 4y agoIt’s not about offering, it’s about having done it. If an employees took the same amount of money it would be theft, so illegally not paying that amount is a very similar crime.
- lcnPylGDnU4H9OF 4y ago> offering not enough money This is not what would be illegal. Wage theft is actual theft in the sense that they knowingly have something (and even sometimes attempt to retain the something) which is legally not theirs. Yes, the worker should quit. Yes, the worker should go after what's owed them. These things aren't mutually exclusive.
- adrr 4y agoThis is about following the law. Has nothing to do with offering money. Manager is a defined role with specific responsibilities and tasks.
