Oakland City University has published a schedule for distributing missed paychecks to former employees laid off after the school suspended all undergraduate programs in May. More than 100 workers were let go, with most missing up to four paychecks; the university says final payroll deposits will be completed by early October via ADP. The case highlights wage payment risks for workers at distressed employers — a scenario staffing agencies may encounter when clients face financial collapse or sudden shutdown.
