Some background, I work for a non-profit in Idaho, and I opted out of direct deposit. I've been employed here for 1 year, and in that time there have been at least 2 times where they did not pay me on time, and our employee handbook also says that we are not allowed to discuss wages (which I make sure to do). And discussion with Co workers has me believing that these are not the only shitty practices going on with our employers.
This morning an email was sent out to all employees that we will be required to use direct deposit for our pay by August 1st, and that we have to have that set up prior to that day to get paid. From what I can tell, in Idaho employers cannot make direct deposit mandatory, but I wanted to check in here to see if any one knew something that I didn't before I send my reply. If anyone can clarify things for me or offer advice I would greatly appreciate it!
