Eastern Wisconsin’s representative in Congress has introduced a new bill aimed at protecting workers and small businesses from unnecessary litigation.
Congressman Glenn Grothman’s Ensuring Workers Get PAID Act would permanently reinstate the Payroll Audit Independent Determination (PAID) program.
The PAID program was initially launched in 2018 by the Trump Administration and allows businesses to quickly resolve wage discrepancies for workers.
Rep. Grothman tells SeehaferNews.com, “The PAID program was an objective success and returned money to workers much faster than traditional methods, benefiting both employees and businesses. By permanently restoring this program, we provide employers with an efficient way to fix mistakes and ensure workers receive their rightful wages without unnecessary litigation or penalties.”
This bill is supported by the National Retail Federation, HR Policy Association, U.S. Chamber of Commerce, National Federation of Independent Business, International Franchise Association, and Institute for the American Worker.
