QUESTION
Can your employer reduce your salary on hours already worked?
Asked on Apr 02nd, 2020 on Labor and Employment - Texas
More details to this question:
We received notice on March 23rd that our salaries were going to be reduced by 30%. In addition, they changed us from being paid bi-weekly to semi monthly. I received my check today for the pay period March 9th-March 25th already at the reduced rate even though we were not notified until the 23rd of March. Is it legal for my employer to reduce my salary on hours already worked?

It sounds like your employer is trying to adjust things to keep the company operating during the pandemic. However, the pay adjustment should not have been retroactive. You could make a Texas Pay Day claim by clicking here: Texas Payday Law Claim - How to Make a Claim
