Therefore, the employer shall settle the wages within 30 days after the end of the natural month, and more than 30 days will constitute arrears of wages.

The full name of unpaid wages refers to unpaid wages for no reason, that is, the unit fails to pay the wages of workers on time or in full without legal provisions.

In the case that the employer is in arrears with wages, the employee should first negotiate with the employer. If negotiation fails, it can be settled through the following legal channels:

(1) Complain and report to the local labor security supervision institution.

(2) To apply for arbitration to the local labor dispute arbitration committee, it should be noted that a written application shall be submitted to the labor dispute arbitration committee within one year from the date of occurrence of the labor dispute.

(3) through litigation. This can be divided into three situations: first, if any party refuses to accept the labor dispute case after labor arbitration, it can bring a lawsuit to the court; Second, they all obey after arbitration. After the labor arbitration award comes into effect, if the employer fails to implement it, the employee may apply to the court for compulsory execution; Third, those who belong to the category of workers in arrears can directly file a civil lawsuit with the court.
