Under federal laws such as the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) and state labor codes, undocumented workers have the same rights to minimum wage, overtime pay, and protection from wage theft as documented employees. The courts have consistently upheld these protections to ensure that all workers are treated fairly.
In the landmark case Plyler v. Doe, the U.S. Supreme Court emphasized that immigration status does not strip individuals of constitutional or legal protections. Similarly, courts have ruled that the right to be paid for work performed applies universally, regardless of a worker's legal status.
