The overtime lawyers working with IQOvertime.com are available to review unpaid overtime claims from New Jersey-based truck drivers who regularly work more than 40 hours a week and have been denied overtime pay. Truckers who do not meet the motor carrier overtime exemption are entitled to receive 1.5 times their regular rate of pay for every hour worked in excess of 40 during a single workweek. If you are unsure whether you qualify under this overtime exemption, visit http://www.iqovertime.com/new-jersey-truck-drivers-unpaid-overtime--41532.html and complete the free case review form to find out if you are entitled to overtime pay.
Federal overtime law prohibits truck drivers from collecting overtime pay under the
motor carrier exemption, which applies to employees who are subject to the Secretary of Transportation’s authority. However, an appellate court recently upheld a ruling that the truck driver overtime exemption in New Jersey only applies to companies primarily engaged in trucking or moving and storage. When state and federal overtime laws conflict, the worker must be awarded the benefit of the law that is most helpful to them. Therefore, even though a truck driver cannot collect overtime compensation under federal law, they may still be entitled to time-and-a-half pay under New Jersey
overtime law.
If you were denied overtime pay as a New Jersey truck driver, delivery service driver or package delivery driver, you may be able to participate in an
unpaid overtime lawsuit to collect up to three years of back pay.
