An overtime violation claim is a legal action initiated by an employee against their employer for not properly compensating them for overtime work. The claim typically arises when an employer does not comply with applicable federal, state, or local overtime laws, which require employers to pay eligible employees at a higher rate for any hours worked beyond a certain number per week or per day. The claim can include allegations of employers failing to pay the required overtime rate, miscalculating the employee's overtime pay, or not properly tracking the employee's overtime hours.
