Overtime violations in the financial services industry are not uncommon, and loan officers are among the types of employees who are most likely to be misclassified or otherwise subjected to illegal wage and hour practices. In fact, in June 2009, Washington Mutual Bank agreed to pay $38 million to settle three overtime class action lawsuits accusing the bank of failing to pay overtime to nearly 4,000 current and former loan consultants who were allegedly misclassified as exempt from federal wage and hour law. JPMorgan Chase also faced a similar
overtime lawsuit which accused the company of failing to pay overtime to current and former loan officers and misclassifying them as exempt from federal and state wage and hour provisions. In January 2010, the judge in this unpaid overtime case gave tentative approval to a $2.5 million settlement pact.
Loan officers and loan consultants who were
denied overtime pay may be able to participate in a lawsuit to recover up to three years of unpaid overtime, as well as an equal amount in liquidated damages and attorneys’ fees.
