Rent-A-Center Reportedly Cheating Workers Out of Overtime Pay

Reports have surfaced that Rent-A-Center may be unlawfully withholding compensation from its assistant mangers.  If substantiated, this would be in violation of the federal Fair Labor Standards Act.  This act requires overtime pay for employees, including assistant managers, under specific circumstances.

The problem is not new.  In October 2011, a California judge approved a $2.7 million wage claim settlement between Rent-A-Center and 2,600 of its store managers.  Additionally, employees have recently filed wage and hour law suits against Rent-A-Center in Ohio, New York, and South Carolina.  Some of these cases may be resolved through an arbitration process.

If you are currently or were formerly an assistant manager for Rent-A-Center work more than 40 hours per week, you may be entitled to overtime pay under the Fair Labor Standards Act.  Your company may argue that you are “exempt,” or not entitled, to overtime pay but this may not be true.  Overtime pay lawsuits have been filed against Rent-A-Center for these very wage and hour law violations.
