You Can’t Pay People in Chicken

On this episode of What The Hell Just Happened?!, CEDR CEO Paul Edwards sits down with Compliance Specialist and Digital Communications Coordinator Ally Dagnino to discuss a high-profile case in which an employer tried to pay employees with chicken sandwiches instead of dollars. Paul and Ally break down the compliance considerations associated with paying employees in trade for products or services (including why it is against the law to do so) and explain when employees do and don’t need to be paid for their time. Bottom line: you can’t pay your employees in chicken!
