Employers Deprive Employees Out Of Overtime Pay?
Employers deprive employees overtime pay due with the following techniques:
Classifying an employee as an exempt employee when in fact they are non-exempt
Many companies think they are clever and uses ruses or ploys to give an employee a title in an effort to evade paying overtime. Recently, Staples paid 38 million dollars ($38,000,000) to settle a lawsuit in which they falsely designated employees as exempt by classifying them as assistant store managers when in fact they spent the majority of their time doing managerial duties. The employer may attempt to classify you as a manager, assistant manager, executive, highly skilled worker, independent contractor, executive, administrator, or various other titles that attempt to avoid paying overtime. Depending on what your daily duties are these titles will be seen as false titles and you may be entitled to overtime. Call us today to discuss.
Falsely asserting that the employee is not entitled to overtime for a variety of reasons.
They may tell the employee because they are salaried they are not entitled to overtime, or because there wasn't advance permission in writing, or that they are exempt, or that due to work evaluation or performance the employee is not entitled. These are also ploys to avoid paying overtime you may be entitled to.
Playing games with the computation of overtime. The employer may be giving you comp time, compute overtime at a regular rate instead of time and a half, promise carry over bonuses or characterize the computation of overtime in many different confusing formulas and payment methods all in an effort to confuse or avoid overtime. Speak with us to help see through their games.
