EMPLOYER MISREPRESENTATION - anon Posted: Jun 19th, 2021 - 7:55 pm In Reply to: Okay, "Ms, Lake" - LMAO
"In the employment context, a misrepresentation generally occurs when your employer makes a pre-hiring assurance which you rely on when deciding whether to work for them. If it turns out the assurance was false or misleading, there's been a misrepresentation."
Can you sue an employer for misrepresentation?
"Yes, you can sue your employer for false promises. Misleading statements can land an employer in court for negligent misrepresentation, fraudulent inducement, or other legal issues. You do not always need an employment contract to prove false promises. ...Your employer made you a promise (even without a formal contract)."
I think the OP has a good solid case against this unscrupulous business owner, who presented a job opportunity under false pretenses, such as the amount of work that would be available at the stated specific pay rate, and the subsequent nonpayment of wages for services rendered in accordance with the agreed upon monthly payment schedule.
This type of employer absolutely does not like being exposed! The best case scenario would be for your missing payment of work provided in May to suddenly be found in your mailbox...
