Copy:
"A Private Employment agency cannot charge an applicant a fee for finding him/her a job. They can charge a fee for things like resume writing, job hunting skills, and other things of that nature. However, they must make it clear what the fee is for.
I'm going to give you a website in which you can obtain additional information. If you wish to file a complaint with this office, I will also provide you with the website where you can download a Labor Standards complaint form"
Actually, you suppose to create own statement in this matter. They do not have form against agencies and their fake contracts which are nothing more than toilet paper:-)

Spammers in action who charged illegally for years and decided to create defamation on workers performance! Few million dollars was charged by those goofy agencies according to their imagination!
"It was ILLEGAL for Good People, LLC (and any referral agencies which does not follow the law) to CHARGE workers a referral fee. However, at this point of DWD investigation they are only truing to determine whether or not workers have received full payment of the referral fee that they paid to the agency. If the workers stil have not been paid in full for the referral fee that they paid, please provide documentation of the amount that they paid to agency" (contracts).
"Referral agency businesses was registered with this Department as an employer agent whose fees or charges are paid entire and directly by the employer to the employment agent (Emphasis added)
You charge Mr/Mrs. ... (worker) a referral fee, and by doing so you violated the law. Also, since you did not send me copies of the Home Care Notices that you had on file relating to his/her placement, I can only assume that you did not prepare the same as required by ... 277.19, Adm. Code.
You should consider this letter as a Correction order and IMMEDIATELY change your practices to ensure that you are in full compliance with all Private Employment Agency regulations. Failure to do so could result in further action".
