Is a transit agency required to pay overtime to a train driver?

Yes. According to the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), bus drivers, train drivers, and other transit drivers are almost always considered non-exempt and therefore entitled to overtime pay.

The FLSA requires employers to pay all non-exempt employees overtime for all hours worked over 40 in the workweek.  Some states have also enacted overtime laws that regulate the number of hours an employee can work within 24 hours before receiving overtime.

If you believe you have been denied overtime pay, your best option is to contact an experienced attorney who can advise you of your rights under the FLSA and state laws.
