Are You Owed Overtime?

Under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), workers must be paid time and half for time worked over 40 hours in a work week.  Some workers are exempt from this rule–including: 

  • Commissioned sales employees

  • Computer professionals

  • Drivers, driver’s helpers, loaders, and mechanics

  • Farm workers

  • Executive, administrative, professional, and outside sales employees

However, each category has its own set of specific requirements that are often misunderstood by employers.  If your employer has placed you in an exempt category incorrectly you could be owed back-overtime for up to 2 years.
