Topic 1: Do some research and find an article that discusses employee compensation. Discuss what you agree and/or disagree with the article.

Topic 2: You have just been hired as a manager of ABC Company. Your first week on the job you are asked by upper management to review payroll. You notice the company is not paying any taxes but there are a handful of individuals who are receiving checks from the company. You ask the payroll director why there are no taxes paid and he states that all of the workers are considered independent contractors. What would you do in this case?
