What Are Wage and Hour Laws?

There are two primary sources for the laws that your employer must follow when it comes to paying you:

• The Fair Labor Standards Act is a federal law that sets out requirements such as minimum wages, overtime payment and when you must be paid
• California has its own set of laws that are, in many cases, even more stringent than federal law

Both sets of law apply to your employment, and you would determine which one may form the basis of your wage and hour lawsuit should you file one.

Common Wage and Hour Violations

There are many ways that an employer can violate wage and hour laws in ways that cost you money that can include:

• Failure to pay you the minimum wage
• Requiring you to work off the clock
• Not allowing you to take lunch and rest breaks
• Not paying you on a bi-weekly or twice-monthly basis
• Keeping tip income which was intended for you
