(a) With each wage payment each employer shall furnish to each employee, in writing or, with the employee's explicit consent, electronically, a record of hours worked, the gross earnings showing straight time and overtime as separate entries, itemized deductions and net earnings, except that the furnishing of a record of hours worked and the separation of straight time and overtime earnings shall not apply in the case of any employee with respect to whom the employer is specifically exempt from the keeping of time records and the payment of overtime under the Connecticut Minimum Wage Act or the Fair Labor Standards Act.

(b) If the record of hours is furnished electronically pursuant to subsection (a) of this section, the employer shall provide a means for each employee to securely, privately and conveniently access and print such record.

(1959, P.A. 338; P.A. 80-79; P.A. 16-125, S. 3.)

History: P.A. 80-79 required that employees be furnished records of earnings “showing straight time and overtime as separate entries”, specified that provisions are inapplicable where employer is exempt from paying overtime and deleted provisions which had excluded salaried employees from applicability; P.A. 16-125 designated existing provisions re wage payment as Subsec. (a) and amended same to add provision re furnishing records electronically with employee's explicit consent and added Subsec. (b) re employer to provide means for employee to access electronic record and incorporation of reasonable safeguards.
