According to federal law, employers are required to pay “non-exempt” workers time-and-a-half compensation for all overtime hours worked. In other words, workers who do not fit into an “exempt” category under
overtime law are entitled to receive 1.5 times their regular rate for hours worked in excess of 40 during a single workweek. Allegedly, some employers in the title insurance industry have adopted a practice of
misclassifying escrow officers and escrow closers as “exempt” employees to avoid paying overtime to these workers. Several courts, however, have ruled that escrow officers and escrow closers are not “exempt” employees and therefore should receive time-and-a-half pay for their overtime hours.
Escrow officers and escrow closers who were wrongfully denied overtime pay may be eligible to participate in an unpaid overtime lawsuit. Visit
