Yes, a company may have to pay overtime to a factory worker, if they work in a factory on the line, in production or maintenance, or in any other position that involves repetitive operations with their hands, physical skill and energy. Overtime pay consists of hours worked more than 40 hours in a workweek. This rule is in accordance with the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA).
If you work as a factory worker and believe that your employer is violating the FLSA by not properly paying you overtime wages, contact an experienced attorney immediately because the time to file these types of lawsuits may be short. If you wait, you may lose your ability to recover some or all of your back pay. Call (855) 794-2795 now for a free consultation to discuss your case.
