I get questions all the time about employee rights. Job seekers want to know about what happens with overtime when they are considered an exempt employee vs. a non-exempt employee. They also wonder about unused vacation and sick pay and commission and bonuses when they leave their job.
Employees ask about overtime, comp time, wages, and other related issues. I also get asked frequently about getting fired and what happens when your job is terminated.
Employment law can be confusing and it can be difficult to learn what your rights are and what you are entitled to. Here are the top 10 workplace violations and what job seekers and employees should know about their rights when it comes to vacation and comp time, overtime, commission, minimum wage, and other worker's rights that are regulated by law.
