Need help against an employer

Hi There,

I hope i've posted this in the correct area to hopefully get some answers
Two Months ago my partner start working for a marketing company out on the road doing face 2 face sales. It was a week before the end of the month an i mentioned that they don't have her NI number so what was going to happen to her tax?. When she got paid she got paid in cash in an envelope with -15% tax on it??? straight away this raised alarm bells for me because how could they be paying her tax?? anyway the next month she was made to sign up with "Jobs Growth Wales" and re apply for her job (So that this company would get a £6000 grant for her) so she did and her contract is due to start with them on the 28th of September so its come to payday again and this time they have given her a cheque again minus this 15% (they didn't tell her it was going to be a cheque so now she has to contact all her bills to change the dates)
I believe what this company is doing is fraud?? am i right if so how would i go about getting this sorted the last thing we want is her to owe the taxman money she was told was being paid. She feel like she has now been used to get this grant from the government for the company (Also the owner and manager Smoke Cigarettes and cannabis and drinks alcohol in the office i have photographic evidence to prove this) I'm really lost at what to do and who to turn to with this.

Any help would be great appreciated

Thanks
