Back Pay

 

back pay: 체불 임금; (임금 인상에 따른) 소급분 임금 (from Daum 영어사전)

income that should have been paid or was expected at an earlier time

(from Cambridge online dictionary)

 

‘A common remedy for wage violations is an order that the employer make up the difference

between what the employee was paid and the amount he or she should have been paid.

The amount of this sum is often referred to as "back pay."’

임금 위반에 관한 일반적인 해결책은 고용주에게 근로자가 받았던 돈과 근로자가 받았어야 했던

임금의 차액을 지급하라는 (법원의) 명령이다. 이 경우의 차액을 흔히 “체불 임금”이라고 부른다.
