Are you owed wages?
Workers are owed the promised wages for all work time, and most workers are entitled to overtime at time and a half after 40 hours. There are exceptions, but employers often tell workers they are exempt when that is not the case. If you work more than 40 hours and don't get overtime, let us make sure you aren't entitled to back wages
Common Forms of Wage Theft
