What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? PA
I was employed with the company for 3 years as a manager and now my boss hires his step-son and makes me his boss on the paper but gives him much higher (almost 20 %) salary.
Prior to hire I was the one to calculate average salary for his position in the area and it came up to my salary range, I was shocked when he gave him even more money. He has no college education, when I have bachelors degree and working on my masters plus I have seniority in the company. Is this legal?

Yep. Perfectly legal.

So long as you don't work for the government.

Is this legal?

Yes. There is no requirement for YOU to get more pay or less pay than someone else.

There is nothing illegal with nepotism in the private sector.

**A: Hmmmmmmmmmm, did you knwo that the boss can actually fire you for no reason and give your position to his stepson and pay him a salary 3 times yours? And then in Jan 2009 give hime a raise and 3 months vacation with pay even though he has no college education.
