if the above and below wing workers weren’t paid correctly, wouldn’t there be some level of state investigation to that effect?
what am I missing?
this is getting ridiculous
we could take it to an arbitrator, but recent rulings have shown they will say things like positive space means space available.
We could have undeniable proof this is all 100% intentional wage theft and I don’t think the DOL would care.
Taking it up in one of our more labor friendly bases might work, but isn’t DL openly ignoring state labor laws in MN right now ?
Wage theft is very common in the US. The reason it’s so common is because it’s allowed by virtue of it is almost never actually prosecuted.
