Unpaid Overtime Claims From Day Rate Oil Field Coordinators Under Investigation

The overtime attorneys working with ClassAction.org are looking to hear unpaid overtime claims from oil field coordinators who are paid on a day rate basis. It has been alleged that certain oil and gas companies have been violating wage and hour laws, including regulations regarding the payment of overtime to eligible employees who work more than 40 hours a week. If you work as a day rate oil field coordinator and were not paid overtime, you may have a claim to recover your unpaid overtime wages. To find out if you are eligible, visit  http://www.classaction.org/day-rate-oil-and-gas-workers-overtime-lawsuits.html and complete the free case review form. 

Even when employees are paid a day rate, they are still entitled overtime for hours worked over 40 in a single workweek, so long as they qualify for such compensation under federal overtime law. Because most oil field coordinators are eligible to collect overtime pay, they must be paid at a premium rate when their weekly hours exceed 40. An oil or gas company cannot simply pay their workers on a day rate basis without taking into account their total weekly hours.  

Oil field coordinators are often required to work well over 40 hours per week and must be compensated in accordance with federal overtime law for this time. If you suspect your rights have been violated in regard to overtime pay and day rate laws, visit ClassAction.org for a free case review. The overtime lawyers working with the site are providing this online consultation at no cost and with no obligation.
