Right to earned pay - AfroChat - African American

Which of you actually get paid by the hour? On demand can you even get that money you just technically earned right after any hour you've worked before having to wait for the week ending period? I bet you cant. And why is that? Anyone really know?

That's what needs to change. I'll tell you this idea: Instead of getting paid by the week ending based on previous pay after work hours it should be a new law to where an employee can get any amount of the money they've rightfully earned on demand at any time during their job's functioning hours. This means if you work, say, an hour, then you should be allowed to receive pay (in form of cash, chech, and/or direct deposit) for that hour's worth of work from your job if it's a job that pays based on an hourly wage. Or, if you dont want to receive any of the money you've earned just yet, like, say, at the end of a week period, then you should be allowed to be able to let it grow from the more you're working till you want to receive any of the money you've rightfully earned to the desired point of your choice. I say have the employer act sort of like a bank you can withdraw from however you like from your earned money. The money only going (and even saving) into it wouldnt be from any other source, but from that employer in what they are to pay you for your working there.

And so it should also be a new law that the longer you keep your earned money in your place of work you also draw interest on that money. Again, sort of like a bank. Surely by keeping your earned money in your place of employment makes it so that place of employment can grow in one way or another.

This would be a good thing, wouldnt it be, when it should already be? Like what made it so that it wouldnt or shouldnt be? You tell me.

Not a good idea Mabus

I think I have to agree with Dragon on this one. It would be an accounting nightmare and I imagine that companies would have to hire a lot more people to maintain this time of practice.

I appreciate the Spirit in which you're coming with this though.
