Google cancels minimum wage, benefits rules for suppliers and staffing firms

April 22, 2024

Alphabet Inc.’s Google will roll back requirements that US suppliers and staffing firms pay their employees at least $15 an hour and provide health insurance and other benefits, Reuters reports. The move could enable the tech giant to avoid bargaining with unions. It follows the US National Labor Relations Board’s January ruling that Google was a joint employer of workers provided by staffing firm Cognizant Technology Solutions and must bargain with their union. Google is appealing that decision.
