US Department of Labor - Wage and Hour Division
The Philadelphia District Office of the Wage and Hour Division (WHD) is a federal law enforcement agency within the U.S. Department of Labor. Located in One Penn Center at 1617 John F. Kennedy Boulevard, this office is responsible for enforcing federal labor laws that protect workers' rights. The division investigates violations regarding minimum wage, overtime pay, recordkeeping, and child labor requirements of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA).
Services and Enforcement
The WHD enforces several critical federal statutes, including:
- Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA): Ensuring compliance with minimum wage and overtime regulations.
- Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA): Protecting eligible employees who take unpaid, job-protected leave for specified family and medical reasons.
- Davis-Bacon Act: Enforcing prevailing wage requirements for government construction contracts.
- Migrant and Seasonal Agricultural Worker Protection Act (MSPA): Safeguarding migrant and seasonal farmworkers.
- Workers Owed Wages (WOW): Assisting workers in recovering back wages owed to them by employers.
Visit Information and Security
The office is situated in a federal office building directly above Suburban Station. Visitors must undergo security screening upon entry, including bag checks and metal detectors. Valid government-issued photo identification is required. While appointments are recommended for specific case discussions, the office provides assistance for filing complaints regarding wage theft or labor violations.
Accessibility and Transit
Being located at One Penn Center, the office offers exceptional transit access. It is directly connected to the Suburban Station concourse, serving all SEPTA Regional Rail lines. It is also steps away from the Market-Frankford Line at 15th Street and numerous bus routes along John F. Kennedy Boulevard and Market Street. The building is fully wheelchair accessible with elevators and ADA-compliant facilities.
