Weakening the Wage Act to Help Employees:
On August 12, 2013, the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court weakened the Wage Act by holding that it does displace common-law claims for unpaid wages. In doing so, the SJC rejected a favorite argument of employers that prevented employees from recovering lost wages earned over three years ago. MLL has already begun to implement this important case into its arsenal and has successfully used it to argue for damages that were previously lost to its employee clients. With MLL as your lawyers, you will have a team that knows the law and knows how to use it. For more information, contact the trusted legal team of MA Employment Lawyers today. (Tags: Wage Violations)
