Background The boss promised to "never be a scumbag" and gave evidence. "Chengdu Evening News" reported on January 16 that the Shudu Notary Office in Chengdu, Sichuan Province recently accepted a special notarization: the owner of a cleaning company was Retained two department managers who asked to resign because they were worried that they would not receive their wages. When cursing and swearing did not work, they signed an agreement with the employees that "never delay wages under any circumstances and will never be treated as old people" and went to the notary office. The company was notarized and became the first person in the country for bosses and employees to notarize that "they will not be in arrears of wages, and they will not be old-timers." Please ask: Who is this kind of notarization useful for? This is a notarization that the media calls "the first of its kind" and a "win-win". But, who is this kind of notarization useful to? Any business credit is based on personal credit. This kind of personal credit includes not only the transaction partner's judgment of his or her personality, moral level, and consistent performance, but also the grasp of the general behavioral rules of people under "prescribed situations." For example, when shopping in a mall, the salesperson does not need to worry about the customer running away without paying after receiving the product, and the customer does not need to worry about the cashier deliberately cheating after accepting the payment and asking the customer to pay again. The concerns of the employees of this cleaning company in Chengdu are probably due to doubts and even denials about the personality and moral standards of the company boss. Once this matter was notarized and became eye-catching news, it was nothing more than a personality and moral standard for the boss. Moral denial, not to mention derogatory terms such as "never be a scumbag" were also written into the notarization. How could the boss who readily accepted the notarization "win"? If paying wages on time and according to the amount is regarded as the bottom line of the company's commercial credit and the bottom line of the boss's personality and morality, as well as basic human nature and trading rules, then regarding the phenomenon of wage arrears, whether it is objective reasons or subjective malice, It can be regarded as an illegal act of embezzling other people's money and should be prosecuted by law. Let’s take an ordinary transaction in a shopping mall as an example: if a customer runs away without paying after getting the goods, it is tantamount to robbery, and the mall will definitely report the crime to the police; if the shopper has paid and the cashier deliberately acts as a scammer, the customer will also Will sue the mall for fraud. There is no essential difference between the way companies use workers to pay wages and the transactions in shopping malls. For a long time, society has shown amazing "legal tolerance" towards wage arrears. Cases of wage arrears occur again and again, but very few business owners have been held legally responsible for wage arrears. It is undoubtedly a joke to notarize that oneself "will never be a bad guy", because it is no different from notarizing that a person "will not kill, set fire to, rob or rape". What the author wants to ask is, by what force can wage arrears, which is essentially an illegal act of misappropriating other people's money and rights, quietly "leave" out of the judicial field of vision? Who is infinitely tolerating or even condoning a large number of unreasonable wage arrears?
