Call center employees who were denied overtime pay only have a certain amount of time to make a claim for back wages before being prohibited by law from doing so. Under state overtime laws, workers are subject to a statute of limitations, a law which states the time period during which legal action can be taken. Should this time period expire, the employee will be prohibited from ever making a claim for their unpaid overtime hours.

When a worker elects to file an
unpaid overtime lawsuit, they may be entitled to receive a number of damages. First, overtime law generally allows call center workers who were denied overtime pay the opportunity to recover up to two years of unpaid overtime wages, or three years if the employer willfully violated overtime law. Additionally, the call center employee may be able to collect liquidated damages, which match the amount of unpaid overtime recovered. For instance, if the call center employee recovers $3000 in back overtime pay, they may also be entitled to an additional $3000 in liquidated damages, bringing their total recovery to $6000. Attorneys’ fees may also be available for recovery in an unpaid overtime lawsuit.
When a call center employee files an unpaid overtime lawsuit, their employer is prohibited by law from taking any retaliatory action (i.e. firing, demoting) against the employee. Therefore, if you have been
