Plain words

What this record means and what it does not

The Wage and Hour Division enforces the federal minimum wage, overtime, child labor, family leave and the wage rules on federal contracts and visa programs. Each row above is one investigation the Division closed; of the 2 on this record, 2 ended with a violation found.

Back wages agreed is the amount the employer agreed to pay the workers the Division found were owed, computed at the federal rates: a minimum wage of $7.25 an hour and overtime after 40 hours in a week. Where West Virginia has a higher state or local minimum, the same hours would come to more under state law, and that part is not in this file.

Civil money penalties are amounts the Division assessed against the employer, separate from back wages; the file records the assessment, not what was finally paid.

The Department flagged 1 case on this record as a repeat violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act and 1 case as willful; either flag raises the penalties it may assess.

This record is federal only. It does not include claims filed with the state labor office, private lawsuits or settlements, so an employer absent from it is not an employer with a clean record, and an employer on it has not been found guilty of anything by a court. Names are written as the Department recorded them, so one business can appear under more than one legal name, and a franchise or branch can sit under its own.

Where to file a wage claim in West Virginia

In West Virginia a wage claim can go to the state: Wage & Hour Section, WV Division of Labor takes claims under state law, which often covers more than the federal rules. The federal route is the Division's page on how to file a complaint with the Wage and Hour Division with what to send and where. The Division also keeps a search of back wages owed to workers it collected and could not deliver.
