Washington What Are Your Rights as a Worker? Is a brochure published by the Washington State Department of Labor & Industries, which outlines the state-specific rights and protections that workers are entitled to by law. The brochure contains information on workplace safety, discrimination protections, wage and hour standards, and other workplace rights. It covers both private and public sector employees, including employees of federal, state, and local governments. It also includes information on the rights of temporary and independent contractors, and other workers who may not be covered by traditional employment law. The brochure is divided into three main sections. The first is an overview of workers' rights and protections, which outlines the minimum standards employers must follow, and the remedies available to workers who believe their rights have been violated. The second section covers wage and hour standards, such as overtime pay, minimum wage, and other pay requirements. The third section outlines the rights of workers to file a claim with the Department of Labor & Industries if they believe their rights have been violated. The brochure also includes a glossary of terms, and contact information for the Department of Labor & Industries for those seeking assistance or more information.
