What legal action can I take for payments not made by my employer?

Answer by  patti (29325)

It depends on what kind of payments are involved. If wages are at issue, contact the local office of the Labor Relations Board. If the matter involves commissions or bonuses, you may need to seek the advice of an attorney, depending on what kind of contract you have with your employer.

If your state has a Labor Board, that is your first step, or your State's Attorney Generals Office. Make sure you have precise documentation. Failing that, an attorney.

Contact the Department of Labor and report them for not paying wages owed. If you have other coworkers with similar cases, it can be class action.

My first action would be to write a letter to the employer explaining your reguest. If that does not get it, the next step is to contact the national labor relations board. They will investigate and they will get you any payments owed to you. Employers do not like the board, they get results.
