Yes No Did you ever work more than forty hours per work week? Yes No How many hours do you believe you worked in a given week? This may be a complicated question, so please describe fully below: e.g. sometimes we only worked forty hours but when a big project was due we were told to clock out and keep working, sometimes three or four hours longer e.g. if there were long security lines, I could spend 10-20 minutes a day waiting to get in to work in addition to the 40 hours we had to work on the job e.g. after the new supervisor came on March 30, I worked 8am to 7pm everyday Monday to Friday, 55 hours a week Why do you believe you may have an overtime claim? I don't know, I just want to be sure I am not being denied overtime! (This answer is perfectly fine, I will still review your submission.) My employer says I am salaried, but I don't manage multiple employees. My employer says I am salaried, but I don't have a job that requires a special advanced degree. (The test is whether you have to use a degree, not whether or not you have one - tricky!) I am paid by-the-hour but I am not paid overtime. My employer says I am an "independent contractor" but I don't own or run my own business; I'm really an employee. My employer doesn't keep accurate time records. My employer pays me under the table or in cash. I receive commissions, bonus, or benefits, but I am only paid overtime for my base pay. I am not paid for short breaks. I am paid less than $5.15 per hour. I am paid less than $455 per week. I complained about not getting overtime and my employer retaliated against me. Do you have a job that employers tend to misclassify? Computer/IT employees Insurance adjustors Call center employees Any job where you have to wear special gear that you spend time putting on or taking off Any job that uses an automatic time clock system or a computerized time clock system Independent contractor Assistant Manager/Shift Supervisor Field Service Technician or Engineer Mortgage broker, banking broker, transportation broker, or other broker Please describe your job duties: Is there anything else you want us to know in evaluating your claim?
