State and university employees could wind up with IOUs in their pay envelopes instead of checks in February if the planned sale of state buildings hits a snag, state Treasurer Dean Martin warned Monday.
And that could leave workers with a piece of paper that won't help them buy food for their families, pay the mortgage or heat their homes.

In California it was clearly established that paying employees with IOU's is illegal. The law is that wages are property & paying by IOU is theft of property. On the other hand a contractor CAN BE PAID by IOU. California state contractors found that out to their dismay. Also there is no sham contractor status. Your employer cannot unilaterally declare you a contractor just to get around this. Was tried years ago to avoid paying withholding & Social Security by certain dirt bag employers. No contractor status without a written, negotiated contract. Courts will set aside any bogus claim that an obvious employee is a contractor with serious penaltys & consequences for the employer. The State has to abide by the law too; IT'S THE AMERICAN WAY. Permalinkadd a comment | go to forum thread
