Yes, an insurance company is required to pay overtime to an insurance adjuster. The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) requires employers to pay non-exempt employees an overtime wage of time-and-a-half for all hours worked over 40 in one workweek.
Determining whether a particular insurance adjuster is entitled to overtime pay is a complex question: many factors go into the decision, and your state’s laws may complicate the issue. That is why it is important to consult with an experienced overtime pay attorney about your case. There are strict time deadlines for filing lawsuits, so it is essential that you contact an attorney immediately if you have been denied overtime pay. If you wait, you may lose your ability to recover some or all of your back pay.
