[QUOTE="pretzel_man, post: 792409, member: 927"] So, you believe that UPS would not steal from you, because you "know the rights". They would prey and steal on the weak "who don't want to ruffle feathers". According to you, this is an outright conscious and deliberate conspiracy. I don't understand why you post these criminal allegations here instead of contacting a lawyer, the district attorney, or the department of justice. Your allegations are a serious violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act. Under the FLSA: The [B][URL="http://www.usdoj.gov/"]Department of Justice ("DOJ")[/URL][/B] can bring criminal actions for "[B]willful[/B]" violations of the FLSA. A violation is "willful" if it is deliberate, voluntary, and intentional. Enforcement actions by the DOJ can be brought instead of or in addition to lawsuits by the Secretary of Labor for back wages or injunctive relief. So, in cases involving willful violations, an employer can be ordered to pay liquidated damages and back-pay, as well as any criminal fine or penalty that is imposed by a court. Criminal penalties under the FLSA are: [LIST] [*]A fine of up to $10,000 on the [B]first[/B] conviction [*]A fine of up to $10,000, or a term of imprisonment of up to six months, [B]or both[/B], on all convictions after the first conviction [/LIST]Some have said that these are honest mistakes (by both sides). You say that it is criminal behavior Instead of posting here, do the right thing. Call the appropriate authorities. [/QUOTE]
