## Definition

An unpaid wages claim is a legal action initiated by an employee against their employer for not paying the employee their earned wages. The claim typically arises when an employer does not comply with applicable laws, which require employers to pay employees for all hours worked and to pay at least the minimum wage rate. The claim can include allegations of employers failing to pay the employee their regular pay, overtime pay, earned commissions, or other forms of compensation. Employees may also bring unpaid wages claims for non-payment of bonuses or other benefits owed to them.
