[ Work ] the professionalism continues...

Terri_New_Year
Did they say why?
๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐
I have no idea why but I'm talking to one of my coworkers about it and what to do
๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ฐ๐ฏ ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ฐ๐ฏ
i'm being serious, take it to someone in HR
Terri_New_Year
Which company is this? And where is it located?
Terri_New_Year
State, I mean
Terri_New_Year
Not all States have the same payday laws.

talk to your state labor board

California

And I'm curious because this isn't just one person being affected, but everyone.
fu mr milkshake
state labor boards take a very dim view of employers not paying wages
๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐
it's not as big of a deal for me cause I'm only part time, I'm wondering about the people who are full time
fu mr milkshake
some states have laws where if they are late with pay then the employer has to pay fines to the employee
fu mr milkshake
I got back pay a previous employer 'forgot' they had to pay me my wages plus a fine for each day they were late
Terri_New_Year
When's your pay period over?
๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐
it ends every other Tuesday
Terri_New_Year
So, it ended two days ago?
Terri_New_Year
Because if you're getting paid Monday, then the employer is within the 7 day time limit.
Terri_New_Year
At least, that's what I'm getting from looking up the law...
