Maintenance Supervisors Denied Overtime Pay

Maintenance supervisors who are denied overtime pay may be victims of employee misclassification, a common overtime scam.

Under federal overtime law, non-exempt employees are entitled to overtime pay. Therefore, unless an employee meets one of the federal overtime exemptions, which are commonly reserved for administrative, professional or executive employees, maintenance supervisors should receive time-and-a-half compensation when working more than 40 hours a week. Still, due to employee misclassification and other illegal wage and hour practices, many maintenance supervisors are wrongfully denied overtime pay.

Unpaid Overtime Lawsuits: Maintenance Supervisors

In June 2010, a final settlement was approved in an overtime case between Becton Dickinson & Co. and employees who accused the medical supply company of misclassifying certain workers as exempt from overtime wages. The lead plaintiff was a former maintenance supervisor with the company. He claimed that Becton misclassified him and other employees to avoid paying them overtime and other benefits protected by California employment law. The former maintenance supervisor also alleged that the company used a pay system which automatically deducted 30 minutes from his daily hours worked. If you suspect your employer is utilizing similar employment practices, they may be in violation of federal and state labor laws.
