Under the federal government's Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) and Connecticut's Fair Employment Practices Act (CFEPA), most employers are strictly regulated regarding how they pay wages, overtime earnings, vacation and sick pay. If you feel you have not been paid according to the law, seek immediate legal counsel from a lawyer who has experience representing employees in Department of Labor (DOL) wage and hour claims cases.
