Philadelphia, PA - what (if any) are the law(s) regarding compensation for underpayment of an hourly employee? employer is resistant to payment by "cut check" and wants to add payment owed to the next pay period (2 weeks)
i have been underpaid 4 of my last 5 biweekly paychecks, as much as $3600 to as little as $210...does the amount underpaid matter? I vaguely remember a past employer's policy stating the underpayment must be at least '8 hours' but with any resistance they would cut a check
also, can they (human resources or payroll) be held accountable for what seems to me as gross negligence?
thanksWhat is the name of your state?
