The overtime pay laws for a cable installer, under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), requires employers to pay it workers overtime pay for all hours worked more than 40 in a single work week. Unfortunately, many employers will deny its technicians overtime pay due to the fact that many cable installers are paid by a “piece rate” compensation. However, “piece rate” compensation does not excuse an employer from the requirement of paying overtime wages to its worker. If a cable installer is paid by a “piece rate” compensation system, all hours worked should be tracked and you are entitled to paid overtime in addition to the piece rate.
