Working Solutions Law Firm Announces New Content on Unpaid Wages in New York and New Jersey

    NEW YORK, NY, October 01, 2023 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Working Solutions NYC, a team of top-rated employment attorneys working on severance, FMLA, and unpaid wages issues in New York and New Jersey at https://www.workingsolutionsnyc.com/, is proud to announce new content on timely issues concerning "unpaid wages" and "overtime" issues. The law firm has an established reputation as one of the top employment law firms in New York and New Jersey.

"That employees deserve to be paid what is owed to them should be a no brainer," explained Chris Q. Davis, managing partner at the law firm. "However, even in this day and age, unscrupulous employers take advantage of workers through illegal non-payment of owed wages and overtime under New York, New Jersey, and/or Federal law."

Interested persons can access the newly updated content as follows. at https://www.workingsolutionsnyc.com/blog/new-york-states-weekly-pay-requirement-for-retail-workers-what-workers-need-to-know. That post explains that New York State's labor code mandates that certain retail employees, classified as "manual workers," be paid weekly rather than the more common biweekly schedule. Although this weekly pay regulation has existed for over a century, only recently can workers litigate against employers for timely wage law infringements. This has led to increased legal actions, where even if wages are eventually paid, employers could be accountable for added costs like attorney fees. A second post at https://www.workingsolutionsnyc.com/blog/not-earning-a-tipped-minimum-wage-in-your-restaurant-contact-working-solutions-today explains that workers who earn tips are subject to "tipped" minimum wage laws; employees who believe that they may be experience unfair wage practices are encouraged to contact the law firm for a free consultation. And a third post at https://www.workingsolutionsnyc.com/blog/have-you-been-misclassified-by-your-employer-contact-working-solutions-today explains some of the issues regarding the "classification" or "misclassification" of employees as contractors, in violation of law.
