A valid grievance to take to whom? This isn't a legal
issue. As long as your husband is being paid at least
minimum wage, his employer's wage obligations under the law
are met. Your husband is free to ask management to re-think
their offer and of course he can look for new employment
elsewhere with compensation more in line with his
responsibilities.
