Brit, whats the use of having an understanding & like minded PRO's, even their PP's are held back by their sponsors. Its a known devil, that all most all M/level companies are holding employees PP's knowing pretty well its against labor law. End of the day, who has to bell the cat ? Like Achaa said, dont take short cut routes, go straight.

This is a serious violation and they will get into big trouble - better to speak to them first and then go report to the authorities...

You may approach the Human Rights Committee and lodge a petition there. They may be able to help you out. If they are unsuccessful, you may lodge a complaint with the Labour Office and they will surely help. However, do keep in mind that your actions against the company may result in a backlash from the company which may terminate your service and send you home. Just think before you act.
