The Kentucky Labor Cabinet is launching a Monthly Unpaid Wages Report to raise awareness about the importance of properly paying employees under Kentucky wage and hour laws. The report will highlight the total amount of unpaid wages that have been collected and returned to Kentucky employees each month. Labor Cabinet Secretary Derrick Ramsey said “We want employees in the Commonwealth to understand that the Labor Cabinet stands ready to help recover and return wages improperly withheld from them.” He said the report was important to employers, as well, reminding them of the importance of fulfilling their obligations under wage and hour laws.
