Some of the more common types of overtime and wage calculation mistakes include:
- Failing to track employees' hours, keeping sloppy records of hours or fudging the numbers to avoid proper paychecks.
- Paying straight time to avoid paying time and a half for hours worked over forty in a single workweek.
- Averaging employees' hours over two or more workweeks to determine overtime.
- Having employees work at two different locations and not adding the amount of time together to determine overtime.
- Bonuses, shift differentials, commissions and other incentive pay are not included when calculating overtime.
- Forcing tipped employees to share their tips with other non-tipped employees, such as managers, dishwashers and cooks.
- Not compensating when tipped employees' wages do not equal the minimum hourly wage, even when tips are added in.
These and other wage calculation errors are violations of the Fair Labor Standards Act. We know how to seek compensation in these cases. Our lawyers know how to get results when you have been wronged.
