Best Answer

Most states have laws requiring employers to pay employees all pay due each payday.

If an employer reduces employe pay for any reason, it must never be lower than the number of hours worked times the minimum wage. A zero paycheck for a full workweek is illegal.

What is you ideal employer-employee relationship?

My ideal employer-employee relationship is where you are able to understand who is of greater command. So, in other words, you can tell who is the employer and who is the employee. In my little brother's school, the principle used to be the husband and the teacher used to be the wife. That is fine as long as they are married. But they could be dating too, just try not to let the employer show too much favouritism.

Will workers' compensation cover employees that are getting paid in cash and has no social security number?

Yes, believe it or not, it will. The law on workers compensation places the responsibility on the employer, not the employee. The fact that the employer is behaving illegally does not absolve him from his legal responsibilities. If an employee is hurt on the job, he is entitled to workers comp. Now the insurance may not pay, but the employer must. If the employer does not pay a frequent course of action is for the state to pay and fine the employer for far more than the cost of the medical treatment.
