Florida Overtime Pay Laws Ensure Compensation for Overtime Work

Florida Overtime Pay Laws Ensure Compensation for Overtime Work
Pinkert Law helps a wide variety of unemployed workers to collect the overtime pay they are legally entitled to.
MIAMI, Florida, April 29, 2010 –– Under the current state of economic hardship, and with unemployment rates reaching record highs, more and more unemployed workers are paying close attention to overtime pay laws, and making sure they collect the compensation they are owed.
The Fair Labor Standards Act states that employees must be paid time and a half wages for any time they work beyond 40 hours a week. This overtime pay law applies to a wide variety of both hourly and salaried workers, regardless of whether or not they are currently employed elsewhere or altogether unemployed. The law can even be retroactively applied for up to 2 years prior to the claim. Many Miami employers are unaware of these laws, or not fully compliant, potentially costing eligible workers hundreds or even thousands of dollars in lost pay.
The attorneys at Pinkert Law are working to help Miami area residents (specifically those who are currently unemployed) to receive their fair and rightful compensation in accordance with the overtime pay laws. If an unemployed or working person states a claim against an employer, it is absolutely illegal for the employer to retaliate in any way. If the claim is successful, the employer will also be held responsible for all associated legal fees.
Pinkert Law offers free consultations for those who think they may have a legitimate unpaid-overtime claim. The Miami-based firm is equipped to handle the most complex overtime pay law cases, and to handle the needs of each and every one of their clients with dedication and care. Pinkert Law’s attorneys are committed to advocating for those who have uncollected employment dues.
Those wishing to file a claim in accordance with the overtime pay law, or to speak with an attorney regarding their eligibility, should contact Pinkert Law at l 305-670-9000, or e-mail the attorneys at info@pinkertlaw.com.
