Under Pennsylvania overtime law, employees who were wrongfully denied overtime pay only have a certain amount of time to make a legal claim for unpaid overtime wages. This time limit is known as the Pennsylvania overtime statute of limitations, and once expired, will bar the employee from ever recovering compensation for their overtime hours. To help prevent this time period from expiring, employees who were denied overtime pay in Pennsylvania are encouraged to consult an overtime attorney as soon as possible to determine their eligibility for legal recourse.

Pennsylvania overtime law states that all non-exempt employees must receive time-and-a-half pay when working more than 40 hours a week. The term non-exempt employee refers to those who do not fall under a Pennsylvania overtime exemption and are therefore entitled to overtime wages. To meet an overtime exemption and become ineligible for overtime pay, the employee must meet a strict set of criteria concerning their pay and job duties. Being paid on a salary basis or holding a certain job title is not enough to exempt an employee from overtime pay.
