My employer has not paid my salary for three months. What can I do?

Unpaid wages are a serious labor issue. Start by gathering employment proof: contract, pay slips, bank records, and any written messages about the delay. Send a formal written demand to HR or management referencing the amounts owed. Many disputes are resolved after documented follow-up; if not, labor authorities or court routes may be available depending on your employment category and records.

Continuing to work without pay is a personal choice, but document every day and every promise from management. Do not sign anything waiving past wages without legal advice. Employees in Ethiopia have remedies for wage claims, but outcomes depend on strong documentation and whether the employer is formally registered. A labor inspector or lawyer can help you assess the fastest realistic path.
