My last hagwon was not paying us on time and at one point it was a month late. It happened 4 times within the year. We called immigration and they told us we couldn't really do anything unless we were no longer working at the school. You can file a complaint but the school will be informed who filed a complaint against them. The law does say 14 days I believe, but from what two different people told me from immigration is that it only applies if you are not working there anymore. So they see it as if you are still working there and haven't quit from not being paid, than you have to wait until the pay is given to you.


It's not an immigration issue, it is a labor board issue.
Immigration cannot do anything over a labor dispute (not being paid).
The labor board has jurisdiction.

There are two main kinds of contract:

for employees (dipendente) and
for apprentices or work-training.
