[QUOTE="Jack Arnott, post: 2673, member: 304"] Hello All, I heard a story on the radio today, about a person who had worked on the movie "Black Swan" as an intern, but is now suing for back wages. The crux of his suit is that if you agree to work for $5.25/hr, even though it is below minimum wage, this is illegal. And you can sue for back wages. In this case, he says that his job (accounting) fell outside the parameters of intern status. I did not hear the whole story, so if it was mentioned, I did not pick up on what the parameters of intern status are. 1) Does anyone know what these guidelines are? 2) Does anyone here use interns? 3) What do you think of this case? Regards, Jack [/QUOTE]
