The new frontier of Wage Theft! It has been a while since NB Employment Law Director Jonathan Mamaril appeared with HR Daily, and he's back with a great Q&A with the (always) excellent Managing Editor - Jo Knox. The Q&A centered around demystifying some of the mainstream media information around wage theft and why we are probably seeing so many more underpayment of wages cases in 2024. If you are an HR Daily subscriber, you can access the Q&A interview here - https://www.hrdaily.com.au/news/11934 💡 Do you want to know more?

Service charges have become a hot-button issue across the country, and the only people that seem to be happy about it are restaurant owners. Customers don’t want to pay arbitrary fees. Front-of-house workers question whether the mandatory service charges eat into their tips. Back-of-house workers wonder how the charges can be tracked on their paychecks, or if they’re getting them at all. And we know how widespread wage theft is in the industry...but that's only the stuff we can reliably track. So, we created a survey so we can understand how service charges affect service workers! Go to bit.ly/ROCservicecharge to tell us all about it! #servicecharges #servicefees #wheresthemoney #wagetheft

Hi y’all! I wish I had some good news to share but unfortunately that is still not the case. Despite repeated efforts, Stephon and I have been unable to secure new employment here in Vietnam for short-term due to work visa regulations. We are now behind on our rent and are struggling to see how we can afford any basic living expenses after the next few weeks. This whole situation is just hopeless and dehumanizing and has left my whole family at risk in a foreign country. (GoFundMe link 🔗 in bio) Additionally, we are struggling to support our beloved pets during this transition and challenging situation. Our elderly dog Dora is terminally ill with multiple failing organs and has needed for several months now to be put to sleep humanely, as she cannot survive her condition much longer and is in considerable pain. Our young cat Oreo will likely be unable to join us in our move without financial aid. Unfortunately, we are now having to make tougher decisions as we simply cannot afford to do most things at this time. For @americaninternationalschoolvn 🇻🇳 I have sent daily e-mails to the school board that were completely ignored by them asking for an update on salary. There are also some things happening on the legal side but these will take a very long time to resolve sadly. Any donation, no matter how small, will provide immense help to my family and our pets as we navigate this challenging situation caused by my employer’s unethical practices and refusal to pay for labor or communicate at all. Please continue to share our GoFundMe so that we can move forward on our own away from this toxic and abusive situation. Lots of love, Catie GoFundMe link 🔗 in bio #lifeupdate #trườngquốctếmỹ #AISVN #wagetheft #BócLột #RightToEducation #saigon #internationalschoolcounselor #InternationalSchool #expatteacher #americanabroad #WorkersRightsAreHumanRights #Corruption #gofundme

The invisible labor of U.S. farmworkers Art and advocacy for farmworkers’ rights By: Isaiah Burns Farmworkers—undocumented farmworkers in particular—continue to face widespread social, economic and political marginalization on a systemic level. One significant issue which persists among migrant laborers is wage theft. “A lot of times, family farmworkers experience wage theft. They’re not able to use their family leave, and there’s really no recourse they receive, because we have a grievance-driven system, which requires farmworkers to come forward and express the issues that they’re experiencing. That puts them in a really vulnerable position, because the employer can retaliate.”—Jennifer Martinez-Medina—a public affairs and policy PhD candidate at PSU #psuvanguard #portlandstateuniversity #artsandculture #portlandstate #pdxedu #psu #portlandarts #portlandartist #pdxartist #farming #undocumentedlaborers #migrantworkers #workingconditions #wagetheft Slide 1: Martinez repurposes produce boxes as canvases on which he depict his fellow field workers. This piece, titled ‘Self Portrait En La Cherry (with Strawberry Fields Forever in the Background’, is currently on view at JSMA at PSU. Macie Harreld/PSU Vanguard. Slide 2: ‘Sunday Morning II’ was inspired by the idea that even on days of rest “…farmworkers are always working, including Sundays, no matter the season. Whether it’s strawberries, apples or cherries, they’re always in,” said Martinez. Isaiah Burns/PSU Vanguard. Slide 3: The produce sold in any given grocery store is available thanks to farmworkers, and yet the harsh working conditions endured by many of these workers goes widely unseen. Macie Harreld/PSU Vanguard.

It’s time to #ActOnFashion. The social and environmental impact of the fashion industry is nothing short of catastrophic. The New York Fashion Act is a groundbreaking bill initially put forward in the 2022 New York legislative session by State Senator Alessandra Biaggi and Assembly member Dr. Anna Kelles. It’s taking aim at the environmental and labor rights violations within fashion’s supply chains. “The abuse of this planet is unacceptable,” Anna Sacks (@thetrashwalker) tells Atmos, “especially to serve an industry as unnecessary as fast fashion. We can all contribute to and work towards reversing that abuse.” On May 7, supporters of the bill will be traveling to Albany to advocate for its passage and call out the industry’s overlapping systemic injustices that weigh on local communities and ecosystems the world over. For Atmos, Culture Director @daphnemilner breaks down the act, why it matters, and how you can take action. Head to the link in our bio to learn more. Artwork by @leoniebosss Design by @astat

Happy #checkyourpaystubfriday to all who celebrate! Get in the habit of checking your paystub each pay period to fight against wage theft. Make sure you're paid for all hours worked, that the clock in/out times are correct, that the tips match up, etc. And while you're there, it's time to start asking where those nebulous "service charges" are going too. Employers are under no obligation to disclose where that money ends up, and unlike tips, workers aren't automatically entitled to them. If the math ain't mathin', this can be a great organizing demand! Check out @roc_united pinned post for how to read your paycheck. #checkyourpaystubfriday #wagetheft #chicagorestaurantworkers #math
Could the Closing Loopholes Bill be the Downfall of Australia’s Workforce? 👩⚖️ In an effort to protect workers and ensure fair pay, the Australian government introduced the Closing Loopholes Bill in 2024. This landmark legislation aims to address wage theft and superannuation underpayment, with employers potentially facing hefty fines and jail time for deliberate acts of underpayment. 💵🤝 The Closing Loopholes Bill has significant implications for the Australian workforce. It redefines the concept of casual employment, affects contractual terms, and impacts digital platform work in the gig economy. The bill also introduces new compliance and enforcement measures, putting pressure on employers to ensure they are meeting their obligations. 📄 Advice for Employees: It’s crucial to understand your rights under the new legislation. Stay informed about changes to the definition of casual employment and be aware of your entitlements. If you suspect wage theft, don’t hesitate to seek advice or report it. 🗣️ Advice for Employers: Compliance is key. Review your payroll and time and attendance systems to ensure they are up-to-date. Consider seeking legal advice to understand the implications of the bill on your business. Remember, intentional underpayment could result in severe penalties. 🚨 The Closing Loopholes Bill marks a significant shift in Australia’s industrial relations landscape. As we navigate these changes, it’s essential for both employees and employers to stay informed and proactive. Together, we can create a fairer, more equitable workplace for all. ⚖️🚀 #ZoomRecruitment #MakePeopleMatter #ClosingLoopholesBill #WageTheft #SuperAnnuation #AustralianWorkforce #IndustrialRelations #WorkplaceReform

Wage Theft Enshrined in Federal Legislation. The Federal government has achieved the passing of legislation enshrining wage theft in the Fair Work Act 2009, secured on the last sitting day of Parliament for the year with the support of prominent senators David Pocock (Independent) and Jacqui Lambie (Jacqui Lambie Network). In a surprise move, the government elected to split their proposed Changing Loopholes Bill into two parts to secure the support of the cross benches. Under the legislative provisions, which passed the Parliament in late 2023, an employer convicted of 'intentional wage theft' could face up to 10 years imprisonment. The maximum fines that courts will be able to impose on a company will be three times the underpayment or 25,000 penalty units, which is currently $7,825,000. For an individual, the maximum fine is three times the underpayment or 5,000 penalty units, which is currently $1,565,000. In simple terms, 'wage theft' occurs when an employer fails to pay an employee their correct wages and entitlements under a relevant Modern Award or a prevailing enterprise bargaining agreement.

The Biden administration announced a new rule Tuesday to expand overtime pay for around 4 million lower-paid salaried employees nationwide. The regulation will increase salary thresholds required to make workers exempt from overtime pay laws. The present annual threshold for salaried employees’ overtime pay is around $35,500, set by the Trump administration in 2019. Beginning on July 1, 2024, that cutoff will increase to $43,888. It will further increase to $58,656 on Jan. 1, 2025. “This rule will restore the promise to workers that if you work more than 40 hours in a week, you should be paid more for that time,” Acting US Department of Labor (DOL) Secretary Julie Su said in a statement. “Too often, lower-paid salaried workers are doing the same job as their hourly counterparts but are spending more time away from their families for no additional pay. That is unacceptable.” Read more through the link in our bio. #Pennsylvanian #Pennsylvanialife #Overtime #Overtimetheft #Wagetheft #Pennsylvania #NewsUpdate #PoliticalNews
NYLAG #InTheNews 📰 Our new neighbors already face significant systemic obstacles in establishing stable lives here, especially as recent policies like shelter stay limits and others make that already challenging task even harder. Contractors allegedly stealing wages from recently arrived immigrants not only takes advantage of that instability, but cruelly exacerbates it. NYLAG Employment Law Project Director Mel Gonzalez provided some legal context in @documented.ny's recent investigation. Read the piece at the #linkinbio ↖ #immigrationlaw #legalservices #wagetheft
Service charges have become a hot-button issue across the country, and the only people that seem to be happy about it are restaurant owners. Customers don’t want to pay arbitrary fees. Front-of-house workers question whether the mandatory service charges eat into their tips. Back-of-house workers wonder how the charges can be tracked on their paychecks, or if they’re getting them at all. And we know how widespread wage theft is in the industry...but that's only the stuff we can reliably track. So, we created a survey so we can understand how service charges affect service workers!

Legal Update: A significant shift in employment law has occurred with the introduction of a new offense under the Fair Work legislation - WAGE THEFT, effective from January 1, 2025. The recent Fair Work Legislation Amendment (Closing Loopholes) Act 2023 marks a milestone in employment regulations. It criminalizes intentional underpayment by employers, potentially leading to imprisonment. The "required amount" now encompasses various components such as wages, allowances, retirement savings, and accrued time off owed to employees. Prosecutors bear the burden of proving an employer's deliberate intent in underpaying their employees to establish a violation of this law. The penalties for contravening this legislation are severe, with authorities empowered to take action within six years. The amendment also grants regulatory bodies the authority to impose escalated fines for egregious breaches of the legislation. Stay informed and compliant with the latest developments in employment law. #FairWork #WageTheft #LegalReform #BTT #law #legalservices #lawfirm #believe #trust #transparency #bttlawyers #yourfightourmission

In Queensland, concerted efforts have been made to safeguard vulnerable workers, including migrant workers and those vulnerable to exploitation in certain industries. Central to this endeavour is the implementation of stricter penalties for wage theft, aiming to dissuade employers from underpaying their employees. These initiatives are complemented by educational programs to inform workers of their rights and support services available to them. Through a collaborative approach involving government, advocacy groups, and communities, Queensland is committed to fostering a fair and equitable work environment for all workers. . . . . #protectingworkers #vulnerableworkers #migrantworkers #exploitationprevention #wagetheft #fairwork #workersrights #fairwages #justiceforall #employmentequality #queenslandjustice #workplacesafety #endexploitation #fairworklaws #empowerworkers #workersupport #knowyourrights #workerprotections #employmentjustice #socialjustice #fairtreatment #wagetheftdeterrent #employmentsecurity #vulnerablepopulations #workerempowerment #employmentrights #fairworkenvironment #queenslandlaw #workersolidarity #workplacefairness
