Wages must be paid for work that was completed as agreed. If an employee is terminated or quits without notice, wages cannot be withheld past the next pay period. Violations should be reported to the Labor Board.

Answer by  patti (29325)

An individual must be paid for work performed per the agreement between the employer and employee. If the employee leaves the job, the wages for work to date must be paid on the regularly scheduled pay date, which often runs a week or two behind. Wages may not be withheld for any reason. Call the Labor Board.

You have to file a grievance, as soon as you can, and it seems you file that through the Department of Industrial Relations, through the State. If my research is wrong, I suggest you call you Unemployment Office, and ask where to file.

Call your federal workman's bureau directly, they can assist you further. It is 100% unlawful for your employer to not pay wages you are owed. He will buckle and pay you at the first sign of legal repercussions.

Your employer has to pay you for all wages that you earn for working for them. They cannot garnish them unless it's child support. You can file a claim with the California Labor Board to get those wages back.
