Wage & Hour Claims: Know Your Rights. Protect Your Wages.
Understanding Your Rights
In the United States, workers in all positions and across all industries have numerous rights, protected by both federal and state laws. As a worker, it is important that you understand your rights so that you know when an employer has violated them, as well as what to do when this occurs.
In addition to a workplace that is safe and free from discrimination and harassment, you have the right to receive fair pay for all hours worked. Your employer may not take unlawful deductions from your paycheck, engage in illegal tip pooling, or pay you less than the applicable minimum wage in your state or local area. Depending on your employment status, you may also have the right to overtime pay, even as a salaried employee.
Your right to unpaid leave is also protected under the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) and certain state laws, meaning you can take qualified, job-protected leave without retaliation. Depending on your state, you may also be entitled to regular meal breaks and rest periods during your shifts.
Perhaps most importantly, you have the right to sue your employer when they violate your rights, and to report violations without retaliation, whether workplace discrimination, harassment, or wage-specific issues like missing money and overtime.
If you believe your employer has failed to pay you for hours worked or otherwise violated your rights, reach out to our team right away. Call (888) 992-2990. We handle cases nationwide.
