| Wage Payment Problems Thigs to consider if your employer is not paying you properly Let's assume the employer's motive is not some form of Discrimination or Retaliation, and that he is not trying to force you to quit (which we call constructive Discharge). Assume you do not have a written employment Contract, and do not have a Non-Compete Agreement, and you have not been given a Separation-Severance-Waiver-of-rights Agreement upon being terminated. No other problems are occurring, in our assumption, and the law of Wrongful Termination will not be playing any role in our analysis. TimsLaw.com |
| Practice Tips for Spotting Wage and Hour Issues: Common FLSA Issues and Exemptions June 28, 2001 By David Borgen Business Week has called it the "revenge of the 'managers"' (March 12, 2001, at p. 60). The article reported that more and more white collar workers "are reallizing they might be getting stiffed" by working long overtime hours without any overtime compensation. The article extimated that "as many as half of U.S. corporations may be misclassifying" employees as exempt from overtime pay. This may be an understatement as the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) continues to report extremely high rates of employer non-compliance with the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 (FLSA). For example, in a recent audit of poultry processing plants, the DOL found violations of wage/hour regulations in all 51 of the plants surveyed (Wall Street Journal, January 16,2000). Overworked and underpaid workers fed up with this sort of treatment will find their way to NELA lawyers. This paper presents some of the most common wage/hour issues that NELA members may face.
