What are your rights as an employee for a small business?

Question

My mother in law works for a small tax office in missouri. She has a contract ( a verbal contract) for salory. 1500 a month. She said that what they had agreed on was to work as much as needed during tax season (she worked more than 80 hours a week then) and after tax season she is only supposed to work 20 a week to help ballace out for how many hours she worked during tax season. Tax season ended in april. She workes still works way more than 40 hours a week and is only supposed to be working 20 a week. The guy she workes for dont have a time clock to keep track of her hours. What can she do to prove how many hours she worked legally?

Answer 1

If there are other workers present then they can vouch for each other. If not she pretty much is screwed.
