What to do in a messy situation of a employer
Yes! I worked for this company less then a week and I haven't received my check for the time I worked there. It's been 2weeks now, every time I arise a question they tell me oh it's been mailed, nothing yet! What is your best advice to this matter? Should I seek legal action or just wait a few more days for it in the mail. I really need some help.
I would give it a few more days n than I would seek.legal help n there's always channel6 trouble shooter they helped me once with a problem with a cable n they got it resolved very quickly
I would wait a few more days and if it's not in the mail I would calk their HR and if nothing haa happened take legal action
Yes seek legal action cause u been played
You worked for the company for less than a week? Did you quit or did they fire you? If you quit, employers typically have more leeway in issuing a final check (often they can wait until the next pay date). If you're fired, they typically will either have your check ready, or send it within a couple days.
If you don't see it , I'd be talking to the State Labor Relations Board.
I would call ask to speak to management and in a respectful way. Ive waited patiently forv2 weeks and my legal advisorvwill be the next one to be checking on it. Really your check was done same time the rest of the employees. So 2 or 3 days after pay day date you should have recieved it..
Seek legal action
Have you had any luck yet?
Why are you still working there? Tell them you want your check or you are taking them to court. Who waits that long? I certainly wouldn't....give me my money.
I'm not sure what state you are in but you need to contact the state office that handles issues of employment, wages etc. I disagree with giving them any more time. Here is an excerpt from NOLO: Your Right to a Timely Paycheck See FindLaw's State Pay Day Requirements chart provides a state-by-state comparison of specific payday requirements and laws government pay frequency. Some examples are included below:
Texas: Employees who are exempt from overtime must be paid at least once a month, while non-exempt employees must be paid at least twice per month (all employees must be paid on regularly scheduled days); state law has no provision in the law assessing penalties for late wage payments Florida: Officers and employees working for the state must be paid at least once a month; there are no minimum payday requirements for private-sector employees Illinois: Employees classified as "executive, administrative, or professional" personnel must be paid monthly; all other employees must be paid on a semimonthly basis Massachusetts: Employers must pay employees weekly or biweekly; union members may be paid less frequently if, for example, a monthly pay schedule is negotiated by the union New York: Manual laborers must be paid each week (or twice monthly, upon approval); clerical and other workers must be paid at least twice monthly What to Do if Your Paycheck is Late Each state has its own procedure for what to do in the case of a missed or late paycheck. But in general, you may do the following if for some reason you are not paid on time or on a regular basis:
Contact your employer (preferably in writing) and ask for the wages owed to you If your employer refuses to do so, consider filing a claim with your state's labor agency File a suit in small claims court or superior court for the amount owed For larger cases involving a late paycheck or payday laws in general, consider hiring a labor attorney to help you. 41 56.8K 17 280 Next Steps Contact a qualified employment attorney to make sure your rights are protected.
