Modifies the minimum wage and overtime administrative complaint process, establishing additional requirements for employees filing certain employment complaints
HB 1745 requires employees to file a complaint with the state labor department before suing employers for minimum wage or overtime violations, effective January 1, 2027. Employees must submit pay stubs, time sheets, and all relevant pay periods as evidence within the complaint. The department must investigate within 90 days, issue findings, and may facilitate settlement offers between parties before a "right to sue" notice is issued. This process directly affects employees seeking unpaid wages and employers facing wage law violations, mandating administrative review before court action.
