Overtime Pay Disputes Lawyers in Los Angeles

Most workers are eligible for overtime pay.  But while many employers gladly pay workers overtime wages properly, some employers use underhanded and illegal methods to avoid paying the fair overtime compensation mandated by the law.

Manager "Labels"

Management workers are not required to be paid overtime.  Questions can come up, however, when employees are given management job titles without actual management functions and responsibilities.  Real managers are in a supervisory role and have the ability to influence personnel decisions.  Employers are prohibited from adding a manager title to a position that does not have manager functions for the sole purpose of not paying that position overtime.

Overtime Guidelines

Overtime is structured differently in different states.  Arizona follows federal overtime guidelines and California follows California overtime guidelines.  Workers in both states are entitled to time and a half pay for any time spent working over 40 hours in one work week.  In addition, most California workers are entitled to overtime pay for any time spent working over 8 hours in a day, with double-time pay after 12 hours.
