Employee Rights for Hourly Jobs


Hourly Employees Have Rights to Overtime Pay

Federal and state wage and hour laws grant hourly jobs very specific rights in the employment context. If you think your employer may be violating your employee rights, you are probably not alone among your co-workers. In order to maximize their profits, many companies push the limits of hourly wage laws.

As an hourly employee, you have rights relating to:

 

Retaliation is Against the Law. Be the First to Step Forward.

If you are the first worker at your company to step forward in order to start a class action lawsuit against your employer, you are typically entitled to receive service award money in addition to the settlement or jury award. After your employer knows that you have an attorney, your employer will be careful to treat you fairly.

 

What Does it Mean to Be a Non-Exempt Employee?

If your job has been classified as non-exempt, your employer is required to observe all federal and state laws relating to overtime pay. Unlike an exempt employee, your employer must pay you overtime pay for working more than 40 hours per week. In addition to overtime, companies must ensure many other employee rights as well.
