Governor Steve Bullock today issued an executive order creating the Task Force on Integrity in Wage Reporting and Employee Classification to help reduce and eliminate unlawful misclassification and payroll fraud and ensure Montanans receive fair pay.

“Fairness is a Montana value, and today we’re upholding that,” Governor Bullock said. “This order will ensure vulnerable workers receive the pay they’ve earned, combat fraud, and make sure the folks already following the rules have the tools they need to keep doing so.”
