I'm not convinced that he is but I CAN think of a couple of possible reasons:

1.) After leaving the island he didn't find his way back to the mainland and needed help. He wouldn't be welcome back at the island after his betrayal so who else could he turn to?

2.) Ben's ultimate goals are for the greater good after all.

On the other hand doesn't the organization behind the boat people have full knowledge of the lost passenger identities? The crew appears to be hand picked so how could they possiblly hire Michael unknowingly? Eh, perhaps he's a stowaway.
