Top Five Ways Employers Violate Maryland's Wage Laws

By James Edward Rubin

ADVERTISEMENTS

  1. Employers fail to pay their non-exempt employees overtime when they work more than 40 hours in a week.
  2. Employers misclassify their non-exempt employees as exempt from receiving overtime.

  4. Employers fail to pay salespeople commissions in their pipeline when their employment terminates.
  5. Employers fail to pay accrued vacation at termination.
