I get paid monthly so the money that they owe is from Aug 15 to Sept 15. They said I would have to wait at the end of each week to get portions of the $863 that they owe me. Can they do that? What does NC law say? Thanks.
If you are an employee and not a contracted worker (1099), then the employer must pay you all promised wages on a previously arranged payday. If that money you mentioned was promised and earned, and should have all been paid on the 15th, then you would have a legal claim. For that amount of money, you might want to try the North Carolina Department of Labor's Wage and Hour Bureau. www.nclabor.com
