It sounds like something your employer put in manually. It is not a standard abbreviation used on paystubs. I would ask you HR department.
It is not legal for your employer to withhold pay for more than 30 days. They are required to pay you minimum wages for ALL hours worked.
You have a right to legal representation but not necessarily during your meetings with your company. Further analysis and information is needed to determine if this is violates public policy law.

Documents with my name and a fake signature was used to commit medicaid fraud when i was on a medical leave. this is only the beginning of the many things that this company did to me. would i have a case and what can...

Sure, you can sue. Is there anyone available to pay damages? One of the problems with fly by night companies is they tend to up and vanish. A court order for you to be paid is far from you actually getting paid.
I have had issues for a couple of years with my co-worker and we have new people in and she has personally attacked me and my character and I took it to my supervisor saying I’ve had enough and want to be moved, but I also told her that I really don’t want to leave. I have 29 years in and can... Read more »
Playing the racecard without any evidence and mere conjecture
But I think it may have violated Ohio law. No law enforcement present, no warrant and no cause. Was this illegal?
That depends on whether you have an employment contract and whether that employment contract gives them the ability to search your car if it's on their property. It seems unlikely, however. You should call an employment attorney.
Paying out unused vacation time upon separation of employment. I live in Ohio. I believe they have to pay it since there is no policy. Correct?
Unfortunately, that is not the case. Vacation time is not guaranteed to be paid out like wages are. An Ohio employment attorney may be able to help you to recover them though. Some will offer free initial consultations.

Hi, I made a mistake of trying to leave the store without paying for merchandise. I qualified for a diversion program. I wanted to know, since I will be doing the program, if I apply for a job now, will I have a conviction on my record or am I safe to answer no to the conviction question?
You should not have a conviction on your record if you completed diversion. You can be sure by searching online for your case in the court you were charged. You should also make sure the question asks whether you were "convicted" or "charged" and answer accordingly.

You can't make them give you a copy. Can you take a photo of the document with your phone? If not, take photos of any damage to the trailer that they note on the document and simultaneously make your own written record of the damage they are writing down.
Yes. There are three settings in which that may occur. One, he might just call you up. In which case, it’s entirely within your rights not to talk to him. Two, he could subpoena you for a deposition. In which case you have to sit down an answer his questions or provide legal basis for objecting... Read more »

It’s really unclear what you’re asking. It’s possible for these people to get arrested, go to jail, and get deported. I wouldn’t describe any of those as benefits.
In the code for my job, it is stated that "A provider shall: Disclose or report in writing to the department if he or she has been or is ever formally charged with, convicted of, or pleads guilty to any of the offenses listed or described in divisions (A)(3)(a) to (A)(3)(e) of section 109.572 of...
