The U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) announces plans to hire 100 investigators to support its Wage and Hour Division’s compliance efforts.

The division seeks to build out an enforcement team nationwide.

WASHINGTON, DC (StLouisRestaurantReview) The U.S. Department of Labor recently announced that its Wage and Hour Division is seeking to add 100 investigators to its team to support its enforcement efforts, including the protection of workers’ wages, migrant and seasonal workers, rights to family and medical leave and prevailing wage requirements for workers on federal contracts.

The Wage and Hour Division is one of the nation’s most essential labor law enforcement agencies, responsible for enforcing some of the most comprehensive labor laws affecting more than 148 million workers.  The cornerstone of its enforcement team, investigators’ responsibilities include the following:

  • Conducting investigations to determine if employers pay workers and affording them their rights as the law requires.
  • Helping ensure that law-abiding employers are not undercut by employers who violate the law.
  • They are promoting compliance through outreach and public education initiatives.
  • It supports efforts to combat worker retaliation and worker misclassification as independent contractors.

“Adding 100 investigators to our team is an important step in the right direction,” said Acting Wage and Hour Administrator Jessica Looman.  “We anticipate significantly more hiring activity later in the fiscal year 2022.  While appropriations will determine our course of action, we are optimistic we will be able to bring new talented professionals on board to expand our diverse team.”

In 2021, the Wage and Hour Division collected $230 million in wages owed to 190,000 workers.  Division representatives also conducted 4,700 outreach events to educate employers and workers about their workplace rights and responsibilities.
