Fines are a certainty. Jail is a maybe depending on what the DOL finds in their investigation. But a former employer of mine once got hit with fines for ONE late deposit; we were out of compliance by a matter of days, not months and the reason we were late was due to a cascade of events...

If you are exempt from overtime the number of hours you actually work is irrelevant. Many payroll softwares use 40 as a default unless the actual number hours is entered, and since it's irrelevant for exempt employees no one is going to spend time entering that into the payroll. It's unlikely...

They need to call the DOL yesterday. This is the sort of thing company executives go to jail for.

Federal law says that you must be paid overtime at the rate of time and a half for every hour worked over 40 in a week. That's a week, not a pay period. Your company policy cannot override Federal (or state, but it's Federal law that's in play here) law. Neither Federal nor state law gives half...

Report it to anyone you like. The answers are to be found in your contract.

And please clarify what state this is happening. State law matters and posting random state names will not get you appropriate responses. FYI I can see what state your IP address is registered in and it is neither Arizona nor California.

I have deleted your four duplicate threads. You only need to post once; five times is four times too many. You will not get more or better answers by spamming the board. Do not post the same question again.

What in the holy heck are you taking about?

There is no state which requires the payout of sick time. Missouri does not require the payout of vacation time unless there is a contract or CBA that requires it. Feel free to consult with an attorney but I think you will find that if they pay out your vacation, they are still doing more than...

I am taking you seriously; please take what I tell you seriously and hear me out. There are two possibilities; you are correct and you are being monitored/harassed, or you are incorrect and nothing of the sort is happening. I'm not making any judgments about which is the more likely; just...

If you have already filed a claim, then as part of the investigation your employer WILL be notified, by the EEOC, at the time of THEIR choosing. It is no longer up to you when your employer is notified of the claim.

You're just lucky, as far as I know.

No. You are entitled to up to 12 weeks of protected leave. After that, any additional medical leave you receive is a gift from your employer and not protected under the law. A doctor's note does not automatically protect your job. Otherwise, your doctor could give you a note saying you would be...

Your job is protected for 12 weeks. On week 13, day one, they may legally let you go. Regardless of how legitimate the medical reason. You have 12 weeks of protected medical leave within a 12 month period. That is NOT the same as your job being protected for one year.

Everyone pass in your tests; grades will be posted on Thursday.

Is she (and are you) fully aware that her choice of careers is likely going to bring her into contact with sick people on a regular basis?

Use it or lose it policies are legal in New York as long as there is a written policy to that effect and the employees are aware of it.

Once she is an adult, you have no financial liability for her bills unless you sign something that expressly says you are. You are NOT automatically liable for her medical bills just because she is on your insurance. You don't sign an agreement to take responsibility for the bills, you're not...

Yes. But on the basis of the scant few facts you have provided, it would NOT be considered ILLEGAL discrimination. Your mistake is in assuming that all discrimination is illegal. In fact, very little is. You discriminated against your green shirt when you put the blue one on today. You...

I am asking this for a reason. How old are you now, and what kind of retirement plan is it?
