Written Demands, employment Complaints, & Investigations

Demands & Complaints for Wages: If an employer owes you incomes, you can send your company a written need for payment of salaries by mail, e-mail, text message, or other electronic means. A written need may be sent to the company at the very same time a Labor Standards Complaint Form for unpaid incomes is submitted with the Division. The Labor Standards Complaint Form can be found on our Demands, Complaints, Responses, and Settlements webpage.

Employer Responses in Investigations: Once a complete Labor Standards Complaint Form is gotten and reviewed, a letter discussing the nature of the grievance and the quantities declared to be owed is sent to the company. For additional information about the examination process, please evaluate the Wage & Hour Claim Investigations – Employer FAQs webpage.

Investigations Launched by the Division (” Direct Investigations”): The Division might conduct employer-wide direct investigations of prospective infractions of Colorado wage and hour law. If you would like to send a tip, please email the Division at cdle_di_tips@state.co.us. If you would like to submit an individual claim for overdue wages, you must submit a Labor Standards Complaint Form on our Demands, Complaints, Responses, and Settlements webpage. To appeal a direct examination citation or one or more Notices of Assessment, an alleged company might send a Direct Investigation Appeal Form.
