Overtime

Paycheck
FAQs
Can I get paid for the extra time after the end of my shift to close the store, do the accounting, and deposit the receipts in the ATM?
I work part-time for a large, nationally recognized company and they stiffed me on my paycheck: the hours I worked were cut in half. My boss told me they didn't have enough money to pay me, but would make it up the next week. What are my rights?
Is the payment of wages regulated by law?
My company failed to meet payroll. I am an at-will employee, paid monthly. Is this considered a breach of employment? Should I consider myself terminated and not bother appearing for work?
Can I deduct from the waitress's salary the money owed by a customer who skips out on his or her check?
I gave a 2-week notice that I was leaving my job, but I ended up working only 1 of the 2 weeks, because my mom died unexpectedly. When I returned to work to pick up my final 2-week paycheck, my boss balked at paying me for the second week. Don't I have a right to that second week of pay?
My employer filed for bankruptcy. Will I continue to be paid?
Will my unemployment payments continue if my previous employer declares bankruptcy?
Severance
FAQs
Does my employer have to give me severance pay when s/he lets me go?
My employer offered me severance, but says I must sign a waiver that says I am giving up my right to sue. Is this legally binding?
