Signs Your Employer May Owe You Money
Wage theft affects both hourly and salaried workers. Many don't know they've been shortchanged.
Under the FLSA, non-exempt employees are entitled to overtime at 1.5x their rate for hours over 40 per week.
- You regularly worked over 40 hours without overtime pay
- Your employer calls you "exempt" but your duties don't qualify
- You were labeled an "independent contractor" but worked as an employee
- Meal breaks were auto-deducted even when you kept working
- Tips, commissions, or bonuses were withheld or miscalculated
- Your final paycheck was late, shorted, or never paid
What You Can Recover
Unpaid Wages
Every dollar you were shorted -- overtime, regular wages, tips, or final pay.
Liquidated Damages
The FLSA typically entitles you to double your unpaid wages as additional compensation.
Attorney's Fees
If you win, the law requires your employer to pay your attorney's fees. You pay nothing.
