Fair Labor Standards Act/Wage Payment Collection Law Claims
Your right to a minimum wage, and "time-and-a-half" overtime pay
Fair Labor Standards Act Attorney In Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Understanding Fair Labor Standards Act Claims
The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) is a federal law that protects employees from exploitation by their employers. It sets minimum wage and overtime pay requirements that employers must follow, as well as record-keeping practices they must maintain for employee wages. The FLSA also outlines restrictions on the types of labor employees are allowed to do, depending on their age. If an employer fails to comply with these rules, an employee can bring a claim in court or file a complaint with the Department of Labor (DOL).

Recovering Wages Under the Wage Payment Collection Law
The Pennsylvania Wage Payment and Collection Law (WPCL) provides additional rights and protections to employees regarding wage payment and collection beyond those outlined in the FLSA. WPCL also requires employers to keep detailed records of payments made to employees, as well as provide clear pay statements when requested by an employee. Additionally, WPCL allows for double damages against an employer who has violated its provisions regarding wages owed to a worker- twice the amount of wages owed or two times the amount of liquidated damages, whichever is greater.
