Description

Sample Letter for Payroll Dispute Dear [Employer's Name], I am writing to address a payroll dispute that has arisen regarding my recent paychecks. After careful review of my financial records and comparing them with the payments received, I have noticed several discrepancies that I believe require immediate attention and resolution. Firstly, I have noticed that the number of hours worked and recorded on my timesheets does not align with the payment I have received. As per our agreed-upon employment contract, my work hours for the pay period were accurately documented, yet my paycheck reflects a significantly lower total. This discrepancy has caused me financial hardship and uncertainty, jeopardizing my ability to meet my financial obligations. Furthermore, there have been inconsistencies in the application of deductions and withholding to my wages. According to Puerto Rico labor laws and regulations, specific deductions are permissible, such as taxes and social security contributions. However, upon analyzing my pay stub, I have noticed unauthorized or excessive deductions that have decreased my net income unjustly. In addition to these discrepancies, I have encountered delays in receiving my paychecks on time. Timely payment of wages is a fundamental right protected by labor laws, and as an employee, I am entitled to receive my compensation promptly. However, there have been instances where my paychecks have been issued well beyond the agreed-upon pay dates, causing financial inconvenience and uncertainty. I kindly request your immediate attention and resolution to this payroll dispute. I believe in the importance of open communication and finding an amicable solution to rectify the discrepancies. To facilitate this process, I have attached copies of my timesheets, pay stubs, and any other relevant documents that support my claims. As an employee, I value my continued employment with the company and hope that we can resolve this matter promptly and without further escalation. I kindly request a meeting with you and the payroll department to discuss the discrepancies and arrive at an equitable resolution. I am confident that through open dialogue, we can identify the root causes of these issues and prevent any future occurrences. If necessary, I am willing to provide any additional documentation or meet with a representative from the labor board to ensure a fair resolution. I trust that, as a responsible employer, you will take my concerns seriously and address them promptly. I appreciate your understanding and attention to this matter. Furthermore, I look forward to receiving a response from you within [reasonable timeframe, for example, five business days], confirming a meeting to discuss and resolve this payroll dispute. Thank you for your cooperation. Sincerely, [Your Name] [Employee ID or Social Security Number] [Contact Information: Phone Number, Email Address]
