The US government stated in a document submitted to the court on Monday local time that the administrative order prohibiting TikTok from operating in the US will not affect employee salaries.
An executive order prohibits US agencies from having business dealings with TikTok’s parent company ByteDance, and an employee worried that his salary would be affected.
The Trump administration stated in a document submitted to the Federal District Court of Northern California that it assured Patrick Ryan, the plaintiff in the lawsuit, that it had no intention of affecting employee compensation and benefits by an executive order. .
The document states that “The Ministry of Commerce has no intention to enforce administrative order 13942 by prohibiting the payment of salaries to the plaintiff and other TikTok employees and expatriates.” The document also states that employees who complete their work will not be considered a violation of the administrative order.
