(EMAILWIRE.COM, February 03, 2011 ) New York, NY – When an escrow officer is denied overtime wages in violation of federal or state laws, they have the option of participating in an overtime lawsuit to recover the time-and-a-half wages to which they were entitled. Depending on the nature of the violation, the escrow officer may be able to collect up to three years of back overtime wages, as well as an equal amount in liquidated damages. If you were denied overtime pay as an escrow officer, visit http://www.iqovertime.com/escrow-officers-unpaid-overtime--42708.html and complete the free case review form form to find out if you can participate in an overtime lawsuit to recover back wages. Employers are prohibited from retaliating against escrow officers who choose to exercise their legal rights, so do not hesitate to take advantage of this free case evaluation today.
Escrow officers who were wrongfully denied overtime pay may have been subjected to employee misclassification, a common overtime violation. Employee misclassification occurs when an employer intentionally misclassifies a worker into an exempt category, meaning they are “exempt” or ineligible to collect overtime pay. However, to be truly exempt from overtime pay, the employee must carry out certain job duties, such as hiring and firing other employees. Because most escrow officers are “non exempt,” they should receive 1.5 times their regular rate of pay for every hour worked over 40 in a single workweek.
Escrow officers who were misclassified or otherwise denied overtime pay should not wait to seek legal assistance. There is a time limit for filing unpaid overtime claims, and failure to file within this time period may bar the worker from ever recovering back overtime wages. Visit IQ Overtime.com today and complete the free case review form to find out if you can file an unpaid overtime lawsuit.
