An unknown company is doing this, and the report is likely based on an internet rumor. Just why is Fox reporting obviously fake news?
And let’s assume there is some truth to this, I can see no legal basis for such a jackass company to get by with it. What one receives as an income from one entity has nothing to do with ones wages, there is no direct correlation.
I really think some lefty with an AOC grade mentality came up with this.
If the company is paying them for no work then it makes sense. Lots of businesses are paying for no work because they were lead to believe an illegal edict from a mayor or governor to lockdown was temporary.
