Overtime for salary employee am I entitled to it if required to work it.

The Fair Labor Standards Act ("FLSA") mandates that an employer must pay an employee time and a half for every hour worked over 40 hours per week.  There are some limited exceptions to this rule for employees who are considered exempt.  Just because you are paid a salary, rather than an hourly wage, does not mean you are exempt from the FSLA's overtime requirements.  Also, the FLSA allows you to recover your attorney's fees from your employer for failing to pay overtime.  If you have specific questions about your case, or would just like to speak to any attorney, please call me for a free consultation.
