Does this action violate the terms of a union agreement or employment contract? Does this treatment constitute some form of legally actionable discrimination (i.e. it is due to your race, religion, disability age, etc.)? If not, then it is legal. The fact is that most employment arrangements are "at will". This means that a company can generally set the conditions of employment much as it sees fit, including how much to pay certain workers.
