The
overtime attorneys working with IQovertime.com are available to review claims from tech support workers who were denied overtime pay after working more than 40 hours a week. Unless specifically exempt under federal
overtime law, technical support employees are entitled to receive time-and-a-half compensation for every hour worked over 40 in a single workweek. In other words, unless a technical support worker meets one of the specific federal overtime exemptions, which are typically reserved for professional, executive and administrative employees, they should receive 1.5 times their regular rate for each hour of overtime worked.
Overtime violations in the technical support industry are not uncommon, as system engineers, database administrators and other tech support workers are among the types of employees who are most likely to be misclassified or otherwise subjected to illegal wage and hour practices. In fact, technology giant IBM recently agreed to pay $7.5 million to settle a class action overtime lawsuit which alleged that the company misclassified its technical support employees as exempt to avoid paying them overtime. Washington-based health insurer Premera Blue Cross is also facing an
unpaid overtime lawsuit for allegedly failing to pay proper overtime wages to its system administrators, system engineers, IT analysts, database administrators and other tech support employees who were responsible for supporting, maintaining and installing the company’s computer hardware and software.
