The problem now, of course, is that we have employees who will be on an AWA that could be unfair under the new system. The other question I have is about part-time workers whose wages are based on a full-time equivalent. My understanding is that if the full-time equivalent wage is over $75,000 but they are working part-time, which means their pay is in effect less, they are not covered under this fairness test.
