If your paycheck feels off, you may not be the only one.

When an employer cuts corners on wages, it usually is not a one-time mistake for one person. It could be happening to ten, twenty, a hundred, even a thousand coworkers at the same time.

A few of the most common ways it may show up:

Rounding errors that shave time off your hours
Breaks that should be paid but are not
Work done off the clock that still counts as work
Being labeled "exempt" from overtime when your actual job duties say otherwise

These violations happen more often than most people realize, and they rarely stop at a single employee. What you may need is someone who understands the process, can walk you through it, and can help protect you and the coworkers going through the same thing.

If any of this sounds familiar, give us a call. We will see if we can help.

Clocked out but still working? Paid a salary but regularly working more than 40 hours? Labeled an independent contractor even though your employer controls how, when, and where you work?

These may be signs of wage theft, unpaid overtime, off-the-clock work, employee misclassification, or other wage and hour violations. Your job title does not determine your legal rights, and small amounts of unpaid work can add up to significant lost wages over time.

You may be entitled to recover back pay, unpaid overtime, additional damages, interest, and attorney’s fees.

The math is simple. If you work more than 40 hours and you're not getting paid overtime, and you're not an exempt employee, that could be a violation of the law.

And here's the thing. Companies rarely do this to just one person. It could be 5, 10, 20, even 100 employees affected by the same practice.

That's where strength in numbers matters. When workers stand together as plaintiffs, they may have a real opportunity to create lasting, impactful change.

If you or your colleagues could be dealing with unpaid overtime, don't wait.

Being paid a salary does not automatically mean you are exempt from overtime.

The U.S. Department of Labor recently secured $750,000 for restaurant employees who were misclassified and denied proper overtime pay. Under federal law, many employees must receive time-and-a-half when they work more than 40 hours in a week.

Working long hours without overtime? You may be owed unpaid wages.

$1.73 MILLION in back wages. 1,666 workers. One payroll "shortcut."
A federal investigation found that a Tennessee contractor working at Ford's electric vehicle and battery campus allegedly left incentive bonuses out of its overtime calculations. Under the FLSA, nondiscretionary bonuses must be included in your regular rate of pay when calculating overtime. When they are not, every hour of overtime you work could be underpaid.
The result here? An average of more than $1,000 owed to each affected worker.
If you earn bonuses and work overtime, your paycheck may be smaller than the law requires. You may be entitled to recover unpaid wages.

On June 25, 1938, one signature reshaped the American workplace.
President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed the Fair Labor Standards Act into law, and for the first time federal law set a minimum wage, guaranteed overtime pay, and put real limits on child labor.
Nearly 90 years later, those protections still cover millions of workers. And employers still find ways to cut corners.
If you are clocking out but still working, getting shorted on overtime, or watching your hours disappear, the FLSA may apply to your situation.
Know your rights. The law signed in 1938 was written for you.

Think your boss can hit you with a surprise pay cut?

Not so fast.

A pay cut generally cannot be applied to hours you already worked. In many states, employers must give advance notice before lowering your rate going forward.

If your paycheck suddenly looks different, check your pay stub. A quiet pay cut could be a wage violation, and you may be owed money.

Salaried but picking up hourly shifts? It is more common than you think. An exempt employee may take on extra hourly work without losing exempt status, as long as their primary duty stays exempt work. The catch: the full guaranteed salary still has to be paid.
Mixing pay structures can get complicated fast, and mistakes can cost you.
