1. If any employer pays any employee a
lesser amount than the minimum wage set forth in NRS 608.250 or, if applicable, the minimum
wage established by regulation of the Director of the Department of Human
Services pursuant to NRS 608.670 , the
employee may, at any time within 2 years, bring a civil action against the
employer. A contract between the employer and the employee or any acceptance of
a lesser wage by the employee is not a bar to the action.
2. If the employee prevails in a civil
action brought pursuant to subsection 1:
(a) The employee is entitled to all remedies
available under the law or in equity appropriate to remedy the violation by the
employer which may include, without limitation, back pay, damages, reinstatement
or injunctive relief; and
(b) The court must award the employee reasonable
attorneys fees and costs.
