Wages
You should be getting paid in a timely manner for the work you do. Hourly Pay: If you are paid on a hourly basis, you are entitled to get breaks and get paid overtime if you work more that 40 hours in a 1 week period. Massachusetts Employment law protects hourly workers by imposing penalties on companies that fail to pay their workers properly.
Vacation
If your company agrees to pay you vacation pay, they must follow through. Massachusetts Employment laws requires that companies pay you what is owed to you; thus if you’ve earned vacation time, your company MUST pay you for this time, even if they fire or lay you off.
