Written Demands, employment Complaints, & Investigations
Demands & Complaints for Wages: If a company owes you incomes, you can send your employer a composed demand for payment of salaries by mail, e-mail, text message, or other electronic methods. A written need might be sent out to the company at the very same time a Labor Standards Complaint Form for overdue salaries is filed with the Division. The Labor Standards Complaint Form can be discovered on our Demands, Complaints, Responses, and Settlements web page.
Employer Responses in Investigations: Once a complete Labor Standards Complaint Form is gotten and examined, a letter describing the nature of the problem and the amounts declared to be owed is sent to the company. For additional information about the examination procedure, please evaluate the Wage & Hour Claim Investigations – Employer FAQs webpage.
Investigations Launched by the Division (” Direct Investigations”): The Division might carry out employer-wide direct examinations of prospective infractions of Colorado wage and employment hour law. If you want to submit a tip, please email the Division at cdle_di_tips@state.co.us. If you want to submit a private claim for overdue salaries, you need to submit a Labor Standards Complaint Form on our Demands, Complaints, Responses, and Settlements web page. To appeal a direct investigation citation or several Notices of Assessment, a supposed company might send a Direct Investigation Appeal Form.
