Denying Overtime Pay

Answer:

I often get questions from employees who are still employed and are wondering whether or not their employer can refuse to pay them for overtime work which they have performed. The answer is no. Under most circumstances, employers must pay overtime for work over 40 hours when an employee is not a supervisor.

There is a legal test that one must perform, and that’s why it is necessary and important that, if you find yourself in this situation, you find, identify, and hire an experienced trial attorney in this area of the law. A trial attorney experienced in labor and employment law, knows to ask the right questions and knows where to find the answers.
