Workers Rights

Hard working New Yorkers deserve fair and full pay for the work they do. Yet across the state, millions of low-wage and immigrant workers are paid less than the minimum wage, denied overtime pay, forced to work off the clock, subject to illegal deductions, misclassified as independent contractors or not paid at all. Empire Justice Center fights to enforce workers’ rights under the Fair Labor Standards Act, New York Labor Law and the Wage Theft Payment Act.
