Before the Division of Labor may conduct a wage payment and collection investigation, an employee must file a Request for Assistance (RFA). Click on the RFA Form link below, complete and submit via email to wageandhour@wv.gov or mail to the address on the form. Before you file, you might also want to review the information we provide titled “Wage Claim Authority & Referral Information”, which explains the types of complaints we have the authority to investigate. You should also review our information relating to the “Wage Complaint Process”, before filing in order to avoid some common mistakes employees, or former employees, make when completing their RFA.
