The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) requires employers to pay employees who are not otherwise
exempt at least the federal minimum wage and overtime pay for all
hours worked over 40 in a work week.
Covered employees
must be paid for all hours worked in a work week. In general,
compensable hours worked include all time an employee is on duty or
at a prescribed place of work and any time that an employee is
subjected to work. This would generally include work
performed at home, travel time, waiting time, training, and
probationary periods.

The laws for overtime
are very specific and must be
adhered to by all employers. If
the failure to properly pay
overtime to entitled
employees is determined to be
intentional, a successful
overtime pay claim may
also result in monetary damages
to be awarded in addition to the
amount owed the employee.
An overtime pay
legal claim may be brought
against both a current or
previous employer. If the claim
is brought against a current
employer, the employer may not
fire you or retaliate against
you in any form as a result of
the overtime pay
dispute.
If the employer does retaliate
or terminate you, and your work
history shows the actions of
your current employer were
sudden and unwarranted based
upon your work history and / or
previous evaluations, depending
upon the circumstances, a
retaliation, hostile work
environment, or wrongful
termination claim may also be
brought against the employer on
your behalf.

About Overtime and Salaried
Employees:
One of the biggest
misconceptions regarding salaried employees is that, because
they are paid a salary from their employer, the are not
entitled to receive overtime pay.
The reality is that many
salaried employees ARE entitled to receive overtime pay.
While most employers adhere to the Overtime Pay Laws
specified by the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), some
employers still choose to be non-compliant.
These employers use the
employees assumption that salaried employees are not eligible
to receive overtime pay, which in effect, pockets earned
wages rightfully owed to their employees.
The FLSA has
strict guidelines which an employer must follow for an employee to
be correctly designated as "Overtime Exempt". If these
guidelines are not met, an employee who would normally be "Overtime
Exempt" becomes eligible to receive overtime pay.
To prove a particular employee is exempt
from the overtime pay requirements of
the FLSA, an employer still must show
that:
-
the employee is paid on a salaried
basis;
-
the salary meets regulation
requirements; and
-
the employee’s duties meet the
requirements
If you are an employee
who is paid on a salary basis, and you are not being paid
overtime pay, even if you were specifically told you are not
eligible to receive overtime pay, call our office today...
... and we will inform
you of your overtime pay status.
