In recent years, the issue of companies trying to avoid paying their employees fair wages has become increasingly prevalent. While many companies claim to value their employees and offer competitive salaries, there are unfortunately some businesses that try to take advantage of their workers by tricking them out of a higher wage.
This can take many different forms, from misclassifying employees as independent contractors to altering time records or even flat-out lying about the compensation package. This type of behavior not only harms individual workers, but it also undermines the basic principles of fairness and equity in the workplace.
