Hospital employees are often required to work long shifts and work additional time before and after their scheduled shift. Employers often deny or unlawfully refuse to pay overtime by misclassifying the positions of their workers. Sometimes hourly health care employees are required to work for all or part of their meal period and are not compensated. Other times hourly health care employees are required to work before or after they have clocked in or out for their scheduled shift. These are clear violations of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) and can be used in your favor to file an overtime pay lawsuit.
