This factsheet is about what you can do if you have been underpaid at work to recover your wages.
What is an underpayment? If you are: not receiving your correct pay or not being paid at all, not being paid more for working late into the night or during weekends (commonly known as penalty rates), or not being paid your entitlements such as annual leave, sick leave, or long service leave, you may have been underpaid and are legally entitled to recover what you are owed.
