Agent of the recruiting unit = intermediary? Is it legal for the agent to pay wages?

Whether the employer can pay wages mainly depends on whether the company has the qualification of labor dispatch. The concept of labor dispatch is that the labor contract is signed with the labor dispatch company, but the labor service company will ask for your salary from the unit where you actually work. Therefore, in essence, the labor service company pays the salary, but in form, it pays your salary normally according to the labor contract. This is legal.

State regulations can refer to the Labor Contract Law.
