Hidden danger of unpaid wages

The potential risks of wage arrears are as follows:

1, it is easy to evolve into a sudden mass incident. Migrant workers generally have the common characteristics of poor living conditions, low education level and poor legal awareness. When they suddenly learned that their hard-earned money could not be cashed and the quality of family life was seriously affected, their inner dissatisfaction was on the verge, which led to contradictions and disputes. When this contradiction is not properly handled and further intensified, it is extremely easy for migrant workers to unite, at least dozens of them.

2. It is easy to cause negative social impact. The problem of migrant workers' salary is widely concerned by the society. A little carelessness in the coordination of disposal will cause many negative effects, especially the increase of social contradictions such as Qiaojia Power Station construction, land acquisition and demolition, and resettlement compensation. A simple incident of migrant workers asking for wages will cause other interest groups to scream and become the fuse to ignite other contradictions. In addition, the Internet and other media, especially those with obvious political inclination abroad, will point the contradiction at the government and public security organs.
