Overtime violations in the financial services industry are not uncommon, as stock brokers and financial advisers are among the types of employees who are most likely to be misclassified or otherwise subjected to illegal wage and hour practices. In fact, Wachovia Corp. recently faced an unpaid overtime claim filed on behalf of more than 10,000 stock brokers. According to the
unpaid overtime lawsuit, the stock brokers, referred to as financial adviser trainees or financial advisers, alleged that they were misclassified as exempt from overtime wages under federal and state law. In May 2009, a federal judge in California approved a $39 million preliminary settlement to resolve the claim.
Stock brokers who were
denied overtime pay may be able to participate in an unpaid overtime lawsuit to collect up to three years of back pay, as well as an equal amount in liquidated damages and attorneys’ fees.
