At Amanda L. Biondolino, PLLC, we are committed to ensuring fair pay for all workers. Both the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) and Florida law mandate that employees must receive a minimum wage for all hours worked. The FLSA further requires that workers are paid overtime pay at one and a half times their regular rate for hours worked over 40 in a workweek, unless an exemption applies. Many cities and counties within Florida also have wage and hour ordinances that protect employees as well.
Common violations include misclassifying employees as exempt from overtime, failing to pay for all hours worked, improper deductions, and paying below the legal minimum wage.
If you believe your employer has failed to pay you the appropriate minimum wage or has denied you the overtime compensation you deserve, we are here to help. Contact us today to schedule a consultation and learn more about how we can assist you with your wage and hour concerns.
