What are the consequences of wage arrears in the United States and Japan?

In the early years, the scene of migrant workers asking for wages made countless people sad. In order to protect the rights and interests of migrant workers, the state has also promulgated a series of policies and laws and regulations. At present, the company's arrears of wages for migrant workers basically do not exist, but the company's arrears of wages will still occur, but employees can complain to the labor department and apply for labor arbitration to solve it.

What are the consequences of malicious wage arrears in the United States and Japan? Both the United States and Japan are developed countries. The United States always likes to preach human rights, while Japanese society is more "disciplined". What about the phenomenon of wage arrears? If you deliberately default in America, you will worry about your life.

In fact, there have been cases of wage arrears in the United States, but we also know that almost every family in the United States has a gun, and wages, as family income, maintain the life of a family. If the boss is in arrears with wages and doesn't try to solve this problem, it is equivalent to cutting off the "outlet" of employees. In this case, someone will choose to shoot the boss, so the consequences of malicious arrears are extremely serious.

In addition, there is a labor arbitration institution in the United States. When workers complain to them, the government will pay the workers first, and then the government will come forward to negotiate with the enterprises, and the situation faced by the enterprises is also very serious. After investigation and verification, government departments found that enterprises do have arrears of wages, which means that enterprises do not pay attention to integrity, so they will blacklist enterprises.

Blacklisted companies can no longer recruit employees, because everyone knows that they are in arrears with wages, and no one wants to stay in a company that does not pay attention to integrity, and they may become the next victim. If the situation is more serious, enterprises will no longer be able to get loans, and even business owners can be affected by going to the hospital to see a doctor.

Therefore, American companies are unwilling and afraid to default on their employees' wages. It must be mentioned that the eight-hour work system began in the 1980s in the United States from 65438 to 2009, although it was first put forward by the socialist robert owen in 18 17.

Before the 1980s, American workers had to work 14 to 16 hours a day, but the pay they could get was very low. At that time, the supervisor of a shoe factory said, "Let a strong 18-year-old boy work next to any machine here, and I can make his hair turn white at the age of 22." So in 1877, the first national strike in American history began. After years of protests, the eight-hour working system was finally realized, and trade unions also played a great role.

What about Japan? Japanese companies make many people love and hate each other. The benefits in the company are still good, but the job classification is clear and overtime is encouraged. Japan also attaches great importance to wage arrears.

If this phenomenon occurs in enterprises, they will have to pay a fine of dozens or even hundreds of times of unpaid wages, so Japanese enterprises will basically not default on employees' wages. In addition, Japanese companies implement a lifelong employment system, and they need to pay economic compensation for dismissing employees without reason. In China, it is also necessary to pay compensation for dismissing employees without reason.
