Pay to Quit

My employer makes all hourly and salaried employees sign a yearly contract that states we have to pay $3k if we quit before the end of the school year. Thus several people want to quit due to a toxic work environment, but feel like they cannot because no one makes that much in a month or more of work. I will never sign a contract again with such a red flag. It’s really sick that an employer would trap people like this. Edit: the contract states that it is for “liquidated damages, intended to represent estimated actual damages and are not intended as a penalty” lol

“Every time you eat at a restaurant, you put the structural integrity of your arsehole in someone else’s hands. You rely heavily on a person’s skillset. That person deserves a livable wage for this.”

Has anyone actually gone to the labor board about not being paid or unsafe work conditions? What was the outcome? Were you blackballed from future opportunities?

An employer paying $2.80/hr is apparently doing their employees a “favor.”
