Sample Letter for Payroll Dispute Subject: Resolving Payroll Dispute — Riverside, California Dear [Employer's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to address a payroll discrepancy that I have recently noticed related to my compensation for the period of [specific time frame]. After carefully reviewing my records and comparing them with the provided payroll statements, I have identified the following issues that require clarification and resolution: 1. Incorrect Calculation: Upon thorough examination, I have noticed that my salary has been miscalculated. The amount stated on my pay stub does not align with the agreed-upon compensation amount stated in my employment contract [or any other relevant documentation], leading to a significant difference in the final payment. 2. Overtime Hours Omission: As per the California labor law, any hours worked beyond the standard 40 hours per week or 8 hours per day are deemed as overtime and are subject to additional compensation. However, it appears that the overtime hours I worked have not been adequately compensated, causing an imbalance in my payment. 3. Unpaid Leave: I had applied for and was granted leave during the specified period [mention the exact dates]. Despite my formal request and the approved leave application, my pay stub indicates a deduction for these days, which is a direct contradiction to the mutually agreed-upon terms. 4.

Certain deductions, such as taxes, health insurance, or retirement contributions, have been miscalculated or completely omitted, resulting in an inaccurate net pay. In light of the aforementioned discrepancies, I kindly request a prompt resolution to rectify the payroll issues. I believe that resolution can be achieved by: 1. Reviewing and recalculating my salary based on the agreed-upon terms, ensuring that all relevant components (including bonuses or benefits) are considered accurately. 2. Adhering to the California labor laws and compensating overtime hours worked with the appropriate pay rate, as mandated by the state. 3. Rectifying the unpaid leave by adjusting my payment to account for the approved time off. 4. Conducting a thorough analysis of the deductions made and ensuring accurate calculations, or providing a clear explanation for the discrepancies if any legal deductions were made. I kindly request that you investigate and address the aforementioned concerns within a reasonable timeframe of [indicate a specific deadline, typically 14 days].
