If employees in Georgia feel that their hours are being unfairly extended beyond their contracted work time, they may have several options for recourse:

  1. Speak with their employer:

    The first step is to raise the issue with their employer or supervisor and attempt to resolve the issue through a direct dialogue.

  2. File a complaint with the Georgia Department of Labor:

    Employees can file a complaint with the Georgia Department of Labor if they believe their employer is violating Georgia's wage and hour laws.

  3. File a lawsuit:

    Employees can also choose to file a lawsuit against their employer for violating their employment agreement or other labor laws.

  4. Contact a labor union:

    If employees belong to a labor union, they can consult with union representatives for support and advice on how to address the issue.

It's important for employees to act quickly if they believe their rights are being violated. If they delay, they may lose their legal right to seek a remedy.
