What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? FL
I have posted here before about the chronic lateness of my pay from my employer. It was a while ago, but to recap, about 1/2 - 1/3 of every paycheck is anywhere from 1 to 7 days past payday since the time I started 2.5 years ago. Also, I have 4 sick days left, with proof, where my boss has told me any more sick time off is a deduction from your pay, and has no records of when I was or wasn't here.
Since there is no Florida Department of Labor, I called the US Department of Labor. The lady then transferred me to the Wage an Hour division. Aside from the man being very rude and unhelpful, ultimately he said that as long as I've been paid, nothing can be done about this man constantly being late on payment. He also said that the responsibility of paid time of is between the employee and employer. This was part of my benefits for working here.
My questions are:
- Is there really anything I can do about this man being constantly late on paychecks?
-Can an employer actually just tell you your vacation is null and void? (I know they can deduct wages due to the FMLA when no sick time is available, but that isn't the case here)
Thanks.
