About Unpaid Overtime
It happens every week in America to thousands of employees. The boss requests you come in earlier or stay a bit later. So you do, taking time away from family and other obligations, but fully expecting to be compensated for it. But when that pay check comes around, all those additional hours over your usual 40 hours aren’t included.
Sometimes it’s a simple accounting mistake, easily corrected. But in to many cases, an employer willfully refuses to compensate for overtime pay, which is a violation of federal law.
