Were You Incorrectly Classified As An Exempt Or Salaried Employee?

Some employers misclassify employees as exempt (paid a yearly salary) instead of nonexempt (paid on an hourly basis) in order to avoid paying overtime, and others have done it by mistake.

Just because your job title includes the word “supervisor” or “manager” does not necessarily mean you are an exempt employee. Your actual job duties and how much time you spend doing “supervisory” or “management” tasks is the most important factor.

The attorneys at Trillium Law, PC can help you sort through the confusion and determine if you may be owed additional compensation due to a misclassification.  Contact Our Law Firm Today to discuss wage claims.
