There are countless ways for employers to attempt to work around the FLSA. Those tactics include (among others): • Meal break violations: These can take many forms, but include not allowing breaks at all or requiring employees to do work tasks during unpaid breaks • Time theft: This could include not paying for training or considering certain tasks to be necessary but unpaid (e.g. requiring workers to arrive at 15 minutes before their shift begins but not paying the worker for that time) • Unpaid overtime: An employer may misclassify a worker as exempt to avoid paying them overtime—or they may not pay at the required 1.5 times the worker’s regular hourly rate for overtime #onefairwage #fairwagesmovement #equalpayforall #minimumwagematters #endpovertynow #equalpaycampaign #fairwageadvocacy #livingwageinitiative #fairwagejustice #economicequality #fightpoverty #community #wellness #giveback #cincinnati #cincy #cincyusa #cincygram #cincinnatioh #queeencity #ohio #healthyincincy #cincyhealth #communityhealthworker #healthcareaccessnow
Many employers game the system by misclassifying part- or full-time workers as independent contractors. An independent contractor is “in business for themself, can increase profit through business decisions…decides how and when they will perform the work” in addition to other considerations. Lost wages means fewer resources for maintaining mental and physical well-being. #onefairwage #fairwagesmovement #equalpayforall #minimumwagematters #endpovertynow #equalpaycampaign #fairwageadvocacy #livingwageinitiative #fairwagejustice #economicequality #fightpoverty #community #wellness #giveback #cincinnati #cincy #cincyusa #cincygram #cincinnatioh #queeencity #ohio #healthyincincy #cincyhealth #communityhealthworker #healthcareaccessnow

Wage theft happens across multiple sectors, ranging from construction to restaurants to retail (and more). One common way in which employers manipulate the system and pay workers less than they’re due is through employee misclassification. Lost wages means fewer resources for maintaining mental and physical well-being. #onefairwage #fairwagesmovement #equalpayforall #minimumwagematters #endpovertynow #equalpaycampaign #fairwageadvocacy #livingwageinitiative #fairwagejustice #economicequality #fightpoverty #community #wellness #giveback #cincinnati #cincy #cincyusa #cincygram #cincinnatioh #queeencity #ohio #healthyincincy #cincyhealth #communityhealthworker #healthcareaccessnow

In the six years between 2009 and 2014, 193 Cincinnati employers were found to have violated the Fair Labor Standards Act. The six-year total of minimum wages, overtime wages, and civil monetary damages recovered across those cases was $3,679,911. More than 6,000 workers were affected. Lost wages means fewer resources for maintaining mental and physical well-being. #onefairwage #fairwagesmovement #equalpayforall #minimumwagematters #endpovertynow #equalpaycampaign #fairwageadvocacy #livingwageinitiative #fairwagejustice #economicequality #fightpoverty #community #wellness #giveback #cincinnati #cincy #cincyusa #cincygram #cincinnatioh #queeencity #ohio #healthyincincy #cincyhealth #communityhealthworker #healthcareaccessnow

Then, should we consider raising the federal minimum wage? #onefairwage #fairwagesmovement #equalpayforall #minimumwagematters #endpovertynow #equalpaycampaign #fairwageadvocacy #livingwageinitiative #fairwagejustice #economicequality #fightpoverty #community #wellness #giveback #cincinnati #cincy #cincyusa #cincygram #cincinnatioh #queeencity #ohio #healthyincincy #cincyhealth #communityhealthworker #healthcareaccessnow
Since 2009, there have been no raises to minimum wage. That means that someone who makes the federal minimum wage has slowly lost buying power over the years: 2010: $10.30 (in today’s money) 2011: $10.15 (in today’s money) 2012: $9.85 (in today’s money) 2013: $9.69 (in today’s money) 2014: $9.54 (in today’s money) 2015: $9.47 (in today’s money) 2016: $9.40 (in today’s money) 2017: $9.21 (in today’s money) 2018: $9.02 (in today’s money) 2019: $8.85 (in today’s money) 2020: $8.65 (in today’s money) 2021: $8.54 (in today’s money) 2022: $7.98 (in today’s money) 2023: $7.49 (in today’s money) 2024: $7.25 #onefairwage #fairwagesmovement #equalpayforall #minimumwagematters #endpovertynow #equalpaycampaign #fairwageadvocacy #livingwageinitiative #fairwagejustice #economicequality #fightpoverty #community #wellness #giveback #cincinnati #cincy #cincyusa #cincygram #cincinnatioh #queeencity #ohio #healthyincincy #cincyhealth #communityhealthworker #healthcareaccessnow
The federal minimum wage was established in 1938 as a part of the Fair Labor Standards Act. In that year, the minimum wage was $0.25/hour, which translates to $5.33/hour today. #onefairwage #fairwagesmovement #equalpayforall #minimumwagematters #endpovertynow #equalpaycampaign #fairwageadvocacy #livingwageinitiative #fairwagejustice #economicequality #fightpoverty #community #wellness #giveback #cincinnati #cincy #cincyusa #cincygram #cincinnatioh #queeencity #ohio #healthyincincy #cincyhealth #communityhealthworker #healthcareaccessnow
Because the minimum wage hasn’t been increased since 2009, its value keeps decreasing.

Homelessness looks different depending on the time of year or location. It can mean living with relatives, in your car, or at a shelter. People of any age can experience homelessness. #onefairwage #fairwagesmovement #equalpayforall #minimumwagematters #endpovertynow #equalpaycampaign #fairwageadvocacy #livingwageinitiative #fairwagejustice #economicequality #fightpoverty #community #wellness #giveback #cincinnati #cincy #cincyusa #cincygram #cincinnatioh #queeencity #ohio #healthyincincy #cincyhealth #communityhealthworker #healthcareaccessnow

It’s a complicated question.
