SB27 - An Act To Amend Title 10 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Limitation Of Actions For Work, Labor, Or Personal Services.
Laura Sturgeon, John Walsh, Edward S. Osienski
Last updated over 1 year ago
17 Co-Sponsors
This Act increases the statute of limitations for filing an action for recovery upon a claim for unpaid wages from 1 year to 2 years, making it consistent with the statute of limitations under the federal Fair Labor Standards Act, 29 U.S.C. §§ 201, et seq. Many employees who are terminated spend the first period of unemployment attempting to secure other employment. After this focus on finding employment ends, 1 year may have passed or be about to pass, preventing employees who are owed wages from a previous employer from seeking legal redress.
