In order to comply with Ohio law, employers must pay Ohio employees at least an amount equal to Ohio’s minimum wage for all hours worked. If you are a non-tipped employee who is not receiving at least minimum wage of $8.30 per hour, you should contact our office to speak with our Ohio minimum wage attorneys today

In general, an employer must compensate an employee for all hours worked, including time spent training. In other words, training time is ordinarily work time. If training occurs while the employee is at work by way of meeting, lecture, or otherwise, the training time is work time.

An employer cannot have a broad confidentiality policy which calls for discipline or termination of employees who discuss wages, hours, or other terms of employment. Contact our Columbus Employment Attorneys today!
