Alamo Rent A Car is the third largest car rental company in the United States. The chain began in 1974 with several different locations in the state of Florida. Alamo was the first company in the industry to develop an online check in system in 2005. In 2007, Alamo was acquired by Enterprise Holdings, the largest car rental company in North America. Today, Alamo is the official rental car company of Walt Disney World Resort and Disneyland Resort. The company headquarters is located in Clayton, Missouri.
Employees at Alamo often work more than 40 hours per week but do not receive overtime pay. Most car rental employees are entitled to overtime pay under the Fair Labor Standard Act (FLSA). However, many companies, including Alamo, either unlawfully deny overtime wages or simply do not pay them. This can give rise to an overtime pay lawsuit.
For Alamo workers, 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.
The largest rental car companies in the United States are Enterprise, Hertz, Budget, Avis, Dollar, Thrifty, National, Alamo, Payless, Fox Rent A Car, and Ace Rent a Car. There are other smaller car rental and specialty vehicle rental companies.

Determining whether a particular car rental company employee is entitled to overtime pay is a complex question because a number of factors go into the decision.
