Filing a Complaint By law, complaints concerning a violation of Utah's occupational and professional laws are not public information. DOPL can be contacted by phone at (801) 530-6628.
A California labor board complaint is a process whereby employees can report their employers to a state agency for various labor law violations. The State of California has over 200 administrative agencies, of which only a small portion investigate and handle complaints of labor law violations.
The Utah Labor Commission is the regulatory agency responsible for protecting the health, safety and economic well-being (i.e., wage, labor or anti-discrimination) of employees and employers.
A BOFE representative will review the report to determine whether to investigate the employer. If BOFE starts an investigation, it may inspect the worksite, issue citations for violations, work with the employer to correct the problem, and collect any unpaid wages owed to workers.
Utah employees also sue their employers for breach of an employment contract or under the public policy exception to the employment at-will doctrine.
Contact the Division at (801) 530-6601 during normal business hours.
