Assistant Manager Overtime Pay Lawsuits

Most assistant bank managers are protected by the Fair Labor Standard Act (FLSA) and entitled to overtime wages at time-and-a-half for working more than 40 hours in a week.  Banks frequently staff their local branch locations with Assistant Branch Managers (or “ABMs”).  These employees are often paid a fixed salary even if the employee works more than 40 hours in a work week.

The bank’s failure to pay overtime when required can give rise to an assistant bank manager overtime pay lawsuit.   For the majority of assistant bank managers, the FLSA requires employers to pay time-and-a-half for all overtime.  In calculating the number of hours worked, the employer must consider all required work performed in all facilities and departments, both before and after a shift, including staff meetings and required paid training.  Some states have also enacted overtime laws that regulate the number of hours an employee can work within 24 hours before receiving overtime.

Determining whether a particular Assistant Bank Manager is entitled to overtime pay is a complex question: many factors go into the decision, and your state’s laws may complicate the issue.  Because of this, it is best to consult an experienced attorney who can advise you on your case.  There are strict time deadlines for filing lawsuits, so it is essential that you contact an attorney immediately.  If you wait, you may lose your ability to recover some or all of your back pay.
