What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Connecticut
My wife was notified about 3-4 weeks prior by the main office of her employer that because of overlapping vacation times with payroll employees the company will provide paychecks bi-weekly instead of weekly. According to the employer's original statement this will end at the beginning of September and go back to weekly, although my wife recently heard that the company is going to continue with bi-weekly indefinitely. I think what the company may be doing is keeping the payroll funds in an interest bearing account for an extra week. I'm not certain on this but I think I heard something about a new employee tax for employers, this is what originally prompted me to think that they were trying to offset a tax hike. This would just be one of numerous, numerous sleazy moves towards their employees. Perhaps I should start listing everything else on here too.
Is what the company doing legal? Should I notify the Dept. of Labor?
