I oppose this bill on principle for the good of NH voters regarding minimum wages.
Allowing employers to waive or undermine minimum pay requirements would weaken wage protections, increase financial instability for workers, and erode basic labor standards that protect low-income and vulnerable employees.
We need to optimize payment options available to employees, not offer loopholes for employers to use.
All this bill does is ensure that workers are not paid fairly for their time and will lead to exploitation of workers.
