236 - Failure to protest underpayments.

   236.   Failure   to  protest  underpayments.  Notwithstanding  any
  inconsistent provision of this chapter or of any other general,  special
  or  local  law,  ordinance,  charter  or  administrative code, a service
  employee shall not be barred from his right to  recover  the  difference
  between the amount actually paid to him and the amount which should have
  been  paid  to  him pursuant to an order entered under the provisions of
  this article because of the prior receipt  by  him  without  protest  of
  wages  paid  or  on account of his failure to state orally or in writing
  upon any payroll or receipt which he is required to sign that the  wages
  received by him are received under protest, or on account of his failure
  to  indicate  his protest against the amount, or that the amount so paid
  does not constitute payment in full of wages  due  him  for  the  period
  covered by such payment.
