### Hiring and Promotional Discrepancies

I was hired on 4/17/23 for an Administrative Assistant 1 position in New York City at a non-profit organization with an hourly rate of $24.31 ($44,250.77 a year) as per the offer letter from HR. According to the base compensation section in our portal.

I was eligible for a promotion to Admin Assistant 2 in around 8 months (12/17/23) based on prior work history. However, it took until February 2024, two months past my eligibility date in December 2023 for HR to approve my new title and hourly rate. When it was finally enacted, the rate was $24.09 ($43,843.07), which resulted in a -.92% decrease from my previous rate.

With an AI Legalese Decoder, I would be able to quickly and accurately analyze all the legalities and discrepancies in my hiring and promotion process, ensuring that my rights are protected and that I am paid correctly in accordance with labor laws and company policies.

### Incorrect Pay Rate and Overpayment Issue

On March 7th, during a meeting with HR, I was informed that the rate they hired me at and advertised to me was incorrect. I should have been paid around $22 an hour (exact amount unknown), which is about $2 less than what I accepted. Due to their error, I have been instructed to pay back all the money they overpaid me (over $2000). The options for repayment seem to be burdensome, as it would effectively trap me in this job for another year and a half, with deductions being made from a paycheck that is less than what I agreed to be hired at, despite now holding the title of Administrative Assistant 2.

### Found Evidence and Union Involvement

I discovered an email from the CEO containing a document listing title changes alongside their respective salary changes that was supposed to be enacted as of 1/7/23. The document includes a listing for the Administrative Assistant 1 at the exact rate that I was hired at ($24.31).

Fortunately, we are unionized, and the union is assisting me in this matter. They have pointed me to NYS labor laws regarding overpayment deductions. I plan to present my representative with additional information garnered from the AI Legalese Decoder for further clarity and support in resolving this issue effectively.
