I do contract work for american defense companies in the middle east I was contacted for a contract in kuwait. I was offered x amount and would be paid for a 12 hour day and a 7 day week, I aggreed to the biweekly amount. Upon flying to germany for processing I was told that I would not be paid that amount till we got to kuwait(I spent 4 weeks in germany waiting for the company to process us). Then when we got to Kuwait we were told we would only be paid 8 hours a day 5days a week till we got on base(we waited for a week in a hotel for base passes). We worked for 2 weeks then had a period waiting for work to arrive(another 3 weeks).
in all I lost over $10,000 in salery that Was promised verbaly and via a e-mail offer letter.
Whats the best way to recover the promised wages. The company I contracted to had a few other problems on site. working in a foriegn country on tourist visa, not reporting accidents, ect...
