Hi,

I get paid a little above the prevailing wage for my position in my current state. However, I was stupid enough(actually I was the one who came up with this idea and insisted it be a part of the employment contract) to sign an employment contract which said that my salary will change to X if the company relocates to location L. However, X is less than the previaling wage in L(I just checked), so can my employer legally pay me X since I agreed to it?

Thanks.
 
Once its above the minimum wage set by the state Government. Its perfectly legal. Depending on what state you”re in.

EG in NJ its $9:50 an hr is minimum wage. Dont quote me in that!!!

So If a heart surgeon wants to work for $10 an hr its perfectly legal !

Sounds like its time to renegotiate your contract!!
