## Definition

A misclassification of exempt status claim is a legal assertion that an employer has incorrectly classified an employee as exempt from overtime pay and other protections under labor laws, when they should be classified as non-exempt. Such claims often seek compensation for unpaid overtime and other benefits wrongly denied due to the misclassification.
