Frequently Asked Questions

Can my employer lower my pay without telling me?

Many states require advance written notice of a pay rate change, and a cut for work you already did is generally not allowed.

What if my pay was cut after I already worked the hours?

Wages for hours already worked usually must be paid at the rate you were promised.

What if my pay was cut after I complained or asked for leave?

A pay cut that follows a complaint or a protected request can be retaliation and needs a closer look.

What evidence helps a pay cut claim?

Offer letters, earlier pay stubs, texts and emails about your rate and the pay stubs after the change help show the cut.

How far back can I claim a pay cut?

Deadlines depend on your state and the type of claim. Federal wage claims generally must be filed within two years, or three if the violation was willful.
