According to the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), non-exempt employees who work more than 40 hours per week are entitled to overtime compensation equal to 1 ½ times that of their normal pay rate. Call center workers are protected under this law and are entitled to receive pay for all hours during which they work. However, some employers try to cheat their employees out of the wages to which they are entitled. If you are a call center worker and have been forced to work more than 40 hours per week, then you may be entitled to seek compensation for unpaid overtime. Call center workers are frequently forced to work off the clock and may seek compensation for unpaid time due to:

• Logging into computer system and programs
• Checking email
• Reading memos and updates
• Meetings
• Training
• Working through lunch
• Inability to take breaks
• Finishing a call that runs over into their scheduled ending time
• Completing paperwork
• Logging off computer system and programs
