The Wage Theft Estimator quantifies unpaid wages owed under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) including unpaid overtime (1.5× rate over 40 hours/week), missed meal/rest breaks, and off-the-clock work. Includes FLSA double damages provision (employee can recover 2× owed wages plus attorney fees if willful). Educational estimate only — wage claims should be evaluated by an employment attorney.

Are tipped workers protected?
Yes — FLSA tip credit rules require employer to make up shortfall to minimum wage. Tip theft (manager taking tips, tip pooling with non-tipped roles) is recoverable.
