What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? --- I work in Michigan (employer headquarted in PA)
Question:-
I work 40 hours a week usually as a software consultant, but worked for 30+ extra hours in May. My employer has not paid me the overtime yet. After talking to my company, he told me that he is not going to pay me overtime because I am a bad timesheet-submitter. He sent me a 6-year old email which mentions that the timesheets need to be submitted on time to get paid the overtime. I was shocked to hear that as I was really looking forward to getting paid for the hard work I did on couple of weekends. I work through multiple layers and the timesheet process is really complicated. It usually causes delays on my end to submit my hours. He has already charged the client and received the money from the client for all of these hours.
Can he do that?
Thanks in advance.
