Understanding Minimum Wage

 

Under the Fair Labor Standards Act, employers must pay their employees the minimum wage set forth in their state. There are certain exceptions to minimum wage laws. For example, there are certain circumstances in which an employer is allowed to count tips earned by an employee toward the minimum wage they are owed. This is often the case for waitresses, bartenders, and other common service industry positions. 

 

If your hours worked and the wages you have earned do not equate to the minimum wage, you may be a victim of minimum wage violations. This means that you have the right to seek compensation and damages for any wages you have lost out on due to your employer not properly compensating you. In addition to the actual amount you are paid, you may also be the victim of minimum wage violation according to the Fair Labor Standards Act if the amount of hours you work surpasses the limits on the legal workweek. In most cases, if you work more than 40 hours per week, you are entitled to receive overtime pay, which is time and a half pay, for every additional hour you work. 

 

If you believe you have not been paid the minimum wage or have not been compensated for overtime you worked, you have the legal right to hold your employer accountable and pursue justice by filing an unpaid wages claim.
