Here's how Virginia's new non-compete and wage laws help employees:
are relatively straightforward as laws go. Both have the same wording, which prohibit employers from discriminating against employees because they have filed a complaint, started a proceeding or testified in a proceeding relating to wage violations.
If a violation takes place, the employee can file a complaint with the DOLI which may initiate proceedings on the employee’s behalf. If violations exist, the employee can potentially recover lost wages, liquidated damages equal to the amount of lost wages and get reinstated to the employee’s prior position.One way employers depress the wages of workers or get away with unequal pay is by prohibiting employees from discussing their wages with each other.
