My employer wants to pay me minimum wage because i havent worked thru 90 days but i am giving a notice. ???
Find answers to your legal question.

Even though I am giving a 2 week notice, my employer is still only paying me minimum wage until I leave. I make 12.50 an hour. I have been all over the us dep of labor site and nothing is stated regarding this. Is this legal?

your employer can reduce your pay at any time as long as you are told before you actually work at the new rate. a reduction generally can not be made retroactive. all the employer is required to pay is at least minimum wage and the applicable overtime if the employer and position are covered by wage and hour laws (not all employers and/or jobs are).

As long as he's paying you at least minimum wage, you have no legal complaint.

If he dropped you down from 12.50 to minimum wage just because you are quiting that is illegal
