Exactly what it says on the tin.
My former employer previously said at the time of termination (1/30/2022) that I would be paid for 2 weeks on the following payday.
It is now the following payday (2/15/2022) and I have not been paid.
When I asked him about it, he said that receipt of final payment is conditional on them receiving the equipment I used while working remotely. It is my understanding that under Pennsylvania law, where they operate from, that they are required to pay me my final payment on the next payday after termination and that receipt of final payment cannot be conditional.
I went ahead and filed an unpaid wages claim with the Pennsylvania Department of Labor. Although I do intend to ship the equipment back, I had originally intended to do so after receiving my final paycheck. At this point, I’m likely just going to ship it back today, but I figured I would file a claim regardless.
