So I ended up having to file a wage claim after my last employer did not pay me my last check. They were about 1 month late.
They also refused to pay me for about 20 hours on my last check, and never paid us for being on-call.
So they owed me about $1800 for unpaid regular wages and anywhere between $2500-36,000 depending on how the on-call time worked out. Whether I was paid at federal OT at min wage or depending on if I was paid at my normal/OT rates.
I’m going to appeal this, but wonder if anyone has dealt with the TWC before.
It’s just wild, because I don’t think they even fined the employer for the late last check.
And I have plenty of proof for all of the hours I am claiming. I just can’t believe it was denied.
