Facing workplace disputes? Here are 3 practical tips to protect yourself and understand employment laws:
- Document everything: Keep records of your hours worked, wages paid, and any conversations with your employer. Emails, texts, and pay stubs can be crucial evidence.
- Understand your pay rights: In NY, if you work over 40 hours per week, you’re legally entitled to overtime pay (1.5x your hourly rate).
- Off-the-books work? You still have rights: Even if you're paid in cash or without records, you are still entitled to minimum wage & overtime pay under the law.
