No, not in the United States.
Depends on what state you live in and if its a fixed salary or hourly salary, for instance, in MA (time + 1/2 for overtime by law) if you get paid $10 per hour and work more than 40 hours in a week, every hour over that you will get paid $15. On the other end if you get paid $500 a week fixed salary that means if you finish all your work for the week by Tuesday, or if it doesnt get done until Sunday you get paid the same (an argument from the employer could be if you finish your work early/sooner than others should they pay you less because you didnt work as long?). You should talk to your employer about it and check any handbook/job description/contract you may have. if you are desputing with your employer about it you may want to seek legal advice to be sure of the legality of the situation. Another example would be, an automotive technician gets paid $20 flat rate, he/she gets a job that the industry standard pays 10 hours for, whether it takes them 5 hours or 15 hours to complete the task they still get paid for 10 hours. The method of payment is irrelevant to qualifying for overtime. Getting a weekly or monthly poaycheck has NOTHING to do with qualifying for OT - only job duties matter. If your job duties are those of an overtime eligible employee, you qualify for OT. Your employer's preference or handbook is irrelevant.
Please post another question mentioning your state, because it makes a big difference. For example, in Illinois, an employee doesn't have to be paid until the next payday, which may be two weeks. In some states, an employee who is fired must be paid within 24 hours, and an employee who quits must be paid within 72 hours. MY FORMER EMPLOYER IN ARIZONA TERMINATED ME ON 6-29-09.TODAY IS 7-07-09.I HAVE NOT RECEIVED MY FINAL PAYCHECK.HOW LONG DOES THIS EMPLOYER HAVE TO ISSUE FINAL CHECK? IVE REQUESTED THE CHECK BE SENT TO MY HOME MAILING ADDRESS.HE SAYS I HAVE TO COME TO THE STORE AND SIGN FOR MY FINAL PAYCHECK.I AM AFRAID TO PHYSICALLY GO TO THE STORE,AS I WAS TOLD BY THE MANAGER ON THE DAY OF TERMINATION,HE WOULD CALL THE POLICE IF I DIDNT LEAVE.
No, all an employer has to tell you is that they found someone more qualified for the position.
Yes they canAnother View: The situation is not clear-cut. The employer may NOT open clearly personal mail addressed to an employee.However, if the mail is addressed to you BY YOUR TITLE OR POSITION within the company, they may open it.If the employer has a problem with the employee receiving personal mail at work, they may discipline them according to company policy, but they may NOT open, or withhold, that persons personal mail. That is a violation of federal law (US Postal Regulations - "Intercepting the US Mail Addressed To Another").
they always check your background first and if they didnt they couldn't fire you
its when a price didnt change from one to another.
yes you can
If you have a job you are legally required to file taxes. Your employer's responsibility is to take the taxes out of your paycheck and "pay the man," as it were. If your W-2s reflect taxes paid to the Gov't, you are in the clear - if you file.
Easiest way would be to use the info on the one with your federal return.
Just to cut to the heart of the matter.....you are an employee at will...that is the employers will. Barring something like a union agreement, they can pretty much do whatever they want in their procedures....and that includes firing you...for any, or no reason. They certainly don't have to accept a Drs note as an acceptable reason for missing work, or anything...they can absolutely (within certain family leave laws and such), say no excuses are acceptable and you cannot miss work for any reason. Find a better employer.
