Wage arrears by construction companies is a common problem. You can solve it through the following conventional methods:

1. Report to the labor administration department (usually the Labor Management Inspection Brigade).

2． You can also directly apply for arbitration (the arbitration fee is 200-300 yuan, and if you win, it will be fully borne by the company).

The affiliated units are most afraid that this will affect their qualifications, credibility, etc. This is the most reliable method!
