A worker wasn’t able to prove that an employer owed him unpaid wages for additional hours and a higher wage rate that disagreed with the employer’s records, the Manitoba Labour Board has ruled.
The worker was hired in August 2022 by Sterling O and G International Corp., a Winnipeg-based developer. His first day was on or around Aug. 24.
According to the worker, he was supposed to be paid $30 per hour, but Sterling disputed this, contending that he was offered $20 per hour. The company also maintained that the worker wasn’t qualified and needed training, for which he would be paid $20 per hour.
