Wage compliance is a critical, yet often overlooked, risk in mergers and acquisitions (M&A). With growing regulatory scrutiny and heightened public awareness around issues like wage theft, acquirers must address this challenge head-on to safeguard the success and long-term value of their investments.
Relying on traditional methods like limited sampling can leave acquirers exposed to hidden wage compliance risks, leading to costly liabilities and operational disruptions.
Now, more than ever, it's essential to take a proactive approach to wage compliance in M&A to avoid unexpected pitfalls and protect your bottom line.
