This bill allows employers to pay their employees' weekly or biweekly wages in gold or silver. It amends current law to add the option for payment in gold or silver alongside other existing payment methods such as payroll cards and checks. The bill also specifies that if an employer chooses to pay employees using other methods, they must still offer the option of being paid in gold or silver. The bill does not provide any details on how the payment in gold or silver would be implemented or valued. The bill will take effect 60 days after its passage.
