Here cause I’m 17 and my employer expected me to work for 6 months on student wage when by law since I’m done high school even though I’m not 18 until December and I graduated June 1st and not going to college for at least a year two they’re still paying me student wage instead of the minimum when I requested to be out at the minimum rate the day I graduated and was denied saying it’s store policy that I need to be 18 like the stores policy is above the law

[@koolharp]

Has anyone ever gotten unpaid wages after filing a claim ?

[@LP-hl3px]

Yes....vacation pay wasn't pd by employer. Employer lied about vacation having been taken when it was not. We had kept notes, we had info . Employer did not keep proper records, just verbal lies so he ended up paying through our claim to Employment Standards. It takes time though. Better than having to pay a lawyer.
