Protecting Undocumented Workers’ Rights To Get The Pay They Have Earned

Under the current labor laws of the United States, undocumented workers are entitled to the protections provided in the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) as well as all of the similar Illinois state wage and hour statutes. That means if you are, or were, an undocumented worker and have been subject to any wage and hour violations (paid less than minimum wage, not been paid overtime pay, have performed pre- and post-shift work “off the clock”, etc.), you are protected by the same laws that protect United States citizens. Your undocumented worker status cannot be raised as a defense by the employer who owes you the back pay.
