I live in Georgia and work for a civil engineering company. As with lots of other firms in the industry they have fallen on hard times as well. I was supposed to receive a paycheck on 5/28 and was told they did not have money in the payroll account to cover payroll. Myself and other employees have still not been paid I am no longer working there because there is no work. Myself and others still have not been paid. What can I do? The amount owed to me is a little over $500. I have contacted the Georgia Department of Labor and they said they cannot help me. I was told the only thing I can do is file a claim in Magistrate Court. What really makes me mad is that when I call about my pay they act like it is an inconvenience for them to give me my money.
