Overtime violations can occur in any industry, and janitors are among the employees who are often subjected to these illegal wage and hour practices.
Employee misclassification is a common overtime abuse which can affect janitorial workers and occurs when an employer intentionally classifies a worker as exempt from overtime wages. Often, an employer will misclassify their employees as independent contractors, as these workers are generally ineligible to receive overtime pay. However, if the employee does not fit the description of a true independent contractor, they are entitled to collect time-and-a-half pay when working more than 40 hours a week, unless otherwise exempt.
Working off the clock is another common overtime violation which can affect custodians and occurs when an employee is required to show up before their shift begins or stay late after their workday has ended. Employers can utilize this illegal wage and hour practice by forcing employees to stay after their shifts to correct errors or complete unfinished work or to clock out for meal breaks even though they are required to continue working. Janitors who are forced to work off the clock may be eligible to recover financial compensation through an
unpaid overtime lawsuit.
