Overtime Claims – Common Class Action Types
Here are some common types of overtime claims we handle on a class action basis.
- Restaurant Industry: Workers such as servers, bussers, and kitchen staff and claims for minimum wage, overtime, and tip-theft.
- Technical Support: Overtime claims for technical support workers in the telecommunications, banking, and corporate sectors.
- Retail Industry: Assistant store managers are often misclassified as exempt from overtime and can accrue substantial claims.
- Adult Nightclub Industry: Dancers and entertainers suffer from frequent misclassification as independent contractors and non-payment of minimum or overtime wages, including earned fees and tips.
- Grocery Store Workers: Employees being denied proper overtime compensation because their employers unlawfully paid them using the “fluctuating workweek” method. It is important to examine whether the employee is really paid a fixed salary and other factors in order to be lawfully paid in this manner.
- Banking and Brokerage: Bank and brokerage employees, including assistant managers, customer service managers, personal bankers, loan officers, and financial advisors, for unpaid overtime.
- Prevailing Wage: Massachusetts workers on public work jobs not being paid the correct rate and, consequently, not being paid the correct overtime rate.
