I'm in the construction industry & am in a supervisory role. I'm salaried and the only woman on site. My boss is skimming my wages, the math just ain't mathing, and he has yet to provide me with the medical/dental/ vision benefits called out in my contract. I am purposely getting ignored, have a paper/email trail going back months. I'm about ready to call the DOL and lawyer up at this point. Anyone have any other suggestions?

Sorry you are going through that. I’m not sure what else you can do when you’ve done all you can to address the situation. Hopefully, the boss comes to their senses, but very smart of you to keep the paper trail because it’s not sounding good.

I would talk to a lawyer before you talk to anyone else. They will give you the best advice about how to handle what's going on.

I assume there's someone above your boss you can contact. At the least, you can contact the company's HR department and get the benefits package straightened out. If this has been going on for a while it sounds like it's just not a legit company. So you may wind up having to get a lawyer, and, of course, a new job.
