Florida Call Center Workers Denied Overtime Pay May Have Legal Recourse

(EMAILWIRE.COM, February 09, 2011 ) New York, NY – Florida call center employees who were denied overtime pay may be able to file a claim to recover up to three years of unpaid overtime wages. Under Florida overtime law, call center workers are typically entitled to overtime pay when working more than 40 hours in one workweek, and when denied overtime pay, may have legal recourse. If you have been denied overtime pay as a Florida call center employee, the overtime attorneys working with IQ Overtime.com are offering a free online case review, which can help determine your eligibility for an unpaid overtime lawsuit. Florida overtime law prohibits employers from retaliating against employees who exercise their legal rights, so do not hesitate to visit http://www.iqovertime.com/call-center-and-customer-service-representatives-unpaid-overtime--41077.html and complete the no cost case review form to find out if you may be able to recover compensation for your unpaid overtime hours.

Florida overtime lawsuits involving call center employees typically arise when a company fails to properly compensate their employees for all hours worked. Under Florida overtime law, all time spent working must be paid and counted towards the employeeÂ’s total hours worked. When a workerÂ’s total weekly hours have been improperly computed, they may be losing overtime wages, which are paid at 1.5 times the employeeÂ’s regular rate of pay for every hour worked in excess of 40 during a single workweek. Job duties which may be overlooked when determining an employeeÂ’s hours worked include the following: reviewing paperwork or e-mails before the start of a shift; staying after hours to correct errors; turning on or shutting off computers; taking work home; and performing work during unpaid lunch breaks.

Florida overtime law only allows employees a certain amount of time to file a claim for unpaid overtime wages, and failure to file within this time period will bar them from ever recovering compensation for their unpaid overtime wages. Therefore, if you have not been paid time-and-a-half wages for hours worked over 40, itÂ’s important to act quickly.
