Travel company illegally holding check...HELP

A nurse friend told a travel company that she would accpet an assignment then she changed her mind. The travel company is holding her check stating that she owes them $XXX for not taking the contract. She never signed a contract!! The travel company is based in PA, the RN is working in CA. Any idea who she should contact regarding some needed assistance with this issue?

Re: Travel company illegally holding check...HELP

If she worked hours she is entitled to that money.. If she had guaranteed hours and thinks she is gonna get that money without working for it,,, she's sadly mistaken..Also if she had no contact,didn't work where is any money due her??? She may have had guaranteed hours but she has to be available to work..Sounds like she wasn't available.. Again if she worked she'd entitled to her pay.. In that case she should contact the California Labor Board.. Do an internet search..

She was working for the travel company she told she'd accept a position then changed her mind but did NOT sign any contract. The travel company she used to work for kept her last 2 weeks pay stating she owes them $XXX because she changed her mind...yes she worked (darn hard too)! She was not deliquent in her utilities or anything else would give the travel company reason to keep her check. They just told her she owes them because she changed her mind...even though she did not sign anything. She knows she's entitled to her money just not sure who to contact.

The labor board.. Like I said in my previous post.

Do an internet search and you should find it..I'd type in California Department of Labor to start with.
