Wage and Hour Claims
I’m a member of “management” but the work I perform is hourly in nature. Am I entitled to overtime?
The New Jersey Wage and Hour Law and the federal Fair Labor Standards Act provide that all employees are entitled to overtime pay, with exemptions for executive, professional, and administrative employees. Some employers stretch the boundaries of these exemptions by giving the title of “manager” to employees whose primary functions are not executive, professional, or administrative. If you are a salaried employee who spends a significant portion of time performing routine, clerical, or physical labor, you may be eligible for overtime. The Law Office of Steven Siegler, Esq. has experience in overtime cases before administrative agencies and the state and federal courts of New Jersey, and will fight aggressively to get you the compensation you deserve.
