Wage and Hour

Protect Your Right to Proper Minimum Wage and Overtime Pay.

Today there appear to be more compensation methods than ever, but there are still laws that define employee duties and employer obligations when it comes to proper payment of wages. A number of employees may be entitled to overtime and other supplemental pay and not even realize it.

The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) requires employers to pay employees at least the federal minimum wage and certain employees overtime premiums when they work over 40 hours in a workweek.

Whether or not you are eligible for overtime depends on whether you are considered an exempt or non-exempt employee. And even if you are paid a salary, you may still be eligible for overtime, regardless of your title. Likewise, even if you are classified as an independent contractor, you may also be entitled to receive overtime compensation.
