My scheduled paydays are the 8th and 23rd of each month. These dates are clearly stated in the employee handbook recieved at the time of hire. For the past several monthes the paychecks are not available on the stated payday. Employees are often given vague reasons why & NEVER given a day or time when they will be available. Usually it is 1-3 days wait. Is there a law regarding being paid ON the exact day stated in the handbook? Once I do recieve my check it is usually incorrect more than half the time. I am often paid the wrong hourly wage, or not paid for all the hours I worked. I am then again forced to wait for my remaining pay. I am never issued another check to make up for the mistake. Instead I am given cash and no reciept or payment stub to verify this payment. This cash payment has the appropriate taxes subtracted but is not recorded in any way. So when I recieve my W2 and do my taxes in the coming monthes these hours & wages will not be documented and result in less of a tax return for me. Is my employer responsible for giving me a reciept of some sort and can I get back reciepts for all the times I was paid in cash? Finally the biggest problem with my companies paychecks is the fact that many of them "bounce". I deposited my last paycheck in my bank and proceeded to write personal checks on it to pay my bills. Only to have it bounce. Now I have bounced checks of my own plus fees on each one. Is my employer responsible for paying these fees? How do I go about getting my employer to pay them if so?
