You must not be in america. We're lucky if we get breaks.

Land of the free and all that. Free from paid healthcare, a decent public education, a strong voice in government, an impartial justice system, employee rights... With all this freedom, it's hard to imagine wanting to be anywhere else.

So if the employer suddenly decides to e.g. start paying you less, how do you prove how much your pay should be?

[-] Sir_Kevin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 3 weeks ago

Previous pay stubs I suppose. Depending on the employer you may have something in writing. This typically wouldn't be contract if you're an employee without a union.

There is nearly always a contract and the business will submit tax paperwork with your compensation to the IRS.

Under the table workers are illegal and on their own

still not a contract, that's just taxes.

[-] Chocrates@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

I'm an American and I've always had a contract. Even in retail. Of course the contracts are all bullshit and just a waiver of my rights.

an employment offer letter is not a contract.
