One of the most significant examples of employer abuse in the workplace arises out of violations of federal and state wage and hour laws.
Often, employers erroneously classify employees as “exempt” employees, meaning they are not entitled to overtime wages. However, after careful consideration of the nature of the position and job duties, employees often discover they should, in fact, be deemed “non–exempt employees” and, therefore, be entitled to overtime wages.
