WASHINGTON D.C — Post-shift meetings are often required by employers for a variety of jobs and occupations. The meetings are mandatory and often take up to an hour at the end of a shift or workday. Many employers and companies refuse to pay overtime pay for post-shift meetings which can be a violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA).
Post-shift meeting are often required for a number of jobs, which include police officers, firefighters, nurses, factor workers, call center employees, restaurant and hotel workers, and a great number of other jobs. Even if the meeting is short and at the end of the day, these minutes add up to significant hours over the course of a year.
Depending on the job type and duties, overtime pay calculated at one and half times the regular rate of pay is required. Unfortunately, employers rarely include post-shift overtime pay in the paycheck.
