A quick definition of wage-and-hour law:

Wage-and-hour law: A law that sets rules for how much money workers must be paid and how many hours they can work. This law helps make sure that workers are treated fairly and not overworked.

A more thorough explanation:

Wage-and-hour law is a type of law that sets rules for the minimum wages and maximum working hours that employees can receive. This law is usually enforced by the government to protect workers from being exploited by their employers.

For example, the federal Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) is a wage-and-hour law that sets the federal minimum wage, which is currently $7.25 per hour. The FLSA also requires employers to pay overtime wages to employees who work more than 40 hours per week.

Another example of a wage-and-hour law is the California Labor Code, which sets the state minimum wage at $13 per hour for employers with 26 or more employees and $12 per hour for employers with 25 or fewer employees. The California Labor Code also requires employers to provide meal and rest breaks to their employees.

These examples illustrate how wage-and-hour laws protect employees by setting minimum standards for wages and working hours. Without these laws, some employers might pay their workers very low wages or require them to work long hours without any breaks.
