Unpaid Overtime Claim

Misclassified Employee

When your employer classifies you in an employment category, position, or title not entitled to overtime, although the substance of your work is covered by the FLSA overtime rights, then you as an employee have been “misclassified” as “exempt.”  Being “exempt” means that you are not eligible for FLSA overtime and related protections.

In order to be exempt from the FLSA overtime pay requirements, an employee has to (1) receive a salary, and (2) perform exempt duties.  Exempt duties generally include (a) Executive, (2) Administrative, or (c) Professional.  There are, of course, variations and exceptions in these classifications.
