Yes, overtime pay for out of town travel and overnight trips are required by your employer. If you believe you have been denied such benefits it is important to consult an experienced unpaid overtime lawsuit attorney about your possible case.
The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) requires your employer to pay you for time spent traveling during normal work hours. This includes hours worked on regular working days during normal working hours and on non-working days, such as weekends. So, if your job requires you to travel, generally you should be entitled to receive pay for that time.
There are strict time limitations for filing a claim so it is important that you discuss your case in a timely manner. If you wait too long, you may lose your ability to recover some or all of your back pay. Call our experienced law firm now at (855) 754-2795 for a free consultation to discuss your case.
